Facing Criminal Charges in Salt Lake City?

Whether you were arrested in Salt Lake City, West Valley, Sandy, or anywhere in between, you are now facing the full force of the Salt Lake County justice system. The clock is ticking, and the decisions you make next are critical. You need a defense attorney who knows the local courts and understands how prosecutors across the valley operate.

At Greg Smith & Associates, we provide the immediate, tactical defense you need. Our strategy is built on a crucial advantage: our founder, Greg Smith, is a former prosecutor. We don’t have to guess at the prosecution’s playbook; we anticipate it, using insider knowledge to build a stronger defense from day one.

Your Salt Lake Valley Advantage

Our firm’s reputation within the Salt Lake County legal community is a powerful asset. We are known by judges and prosecutors in courthouses from downtown SLC to West Jordan as hardworking, formidable advocates. This respect allows us to negotiate from a position of strength, often securing reduced charges or dismissals for our clients throughout the valley.

We offer aggressive representation for clients in every city across the valley, including West Jordan, Murray, Draper, South Jordan, Herriman, and Riverton. Our goal is a direct, strategic defense against any charge you face.

DUI Defense: Challenging every aspect of your stop and sobriety testing, whether you were on I-15 or a local road.
Drug Crimes: Scrutinizing search and seizure protocols to defend your rights against possession or distribution charges.
Assault & Domestic Violence: Providing a discreet yet powerful defense to protect your reputation and your future.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ben was awesome and really pulled some strings to get us in when they’re so busy. They were very helpful and put our worries at ease with the nonsense we’re having to handle with false allegations from DCFS. Highly recommend them for any legal needs!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I called this morning about a consultation, most attorneys schedule days to weeks out and after speaking to Ben about my situation he got me in hours later. Greg assisted in the consultation and was very knowledgeable. We look forward to working with them!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Edit in order to respond: Look at their response. Never did I say they represented me, instead Inreached out according to their instructions and they ignored after their initial response. See photos below. No one is claiming they represented me; nor will they ever. Huge red flags for this attorney. All I need to do is share my correspondence with this attorney. Who in a professional setting responds to a potential client with “Some.” Needless to say, he chose to ignore me, even after I sent a “following up” text. You can see the read receipts. Just the simple lack of common courtesy and professionalism from this attorney, in my opinion, is a reflection of the effort they would show a client. Go elsewhere. *Hint: You should google search the names of the positive comments. p.s. No sir, I don’t need your cookie cutter response, I mean excuse for your lack of professionalism.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m currently working with Ben regarding an issue with my recent car purchase, and so far I’ve been very happy with his help. The situation has been stressful and confusing, but Ben has been professional, responsive, and has helped me understand my options and what steps we need to take. Since my case is still ongoing, I can’t speak to the final outcome yet, but I really appreciate the support and guidance I’ve received so far. I’m grateful to have someone advocating for me through this process.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot say enough good things about Greg Smith and the two associates who worked on my case (Benjamin Drabik and Patrick Abrams). They communicated clearly, they were proactive, they gave me outstanding insights and advise along the way. And my case resolved in the most ideal scenario for me as a result. Thank you!
