Key Reminders: Know Your Rights

  • Never plead guilty without consulting us first! Even if you believe you are guilty, a guilty plea can have severe and lasting consequences. You have rights, and you deserve the best possible outcome, just like anyone else. Don’t settle for a worse deal simply because you want to take responsibility.
  • Talk to us before speaking with the prosecutor. Anything you say to the prosecution can be used against you. It is often challenging to undo any damage caused before we become involved. Criminal law is complex, and each judge and prosecutor operates differently. Our familiarity with their approaches is invaluable – please don’t navigate this alone.

Our Utah Criminal Attorneys Provide Immediate Assistance for People Accused of Crimes

Here’s how Greg Smith & Associates is typically hired to help you:

  1. Swift Jail Release: We prioritize getting you or your loved one out of jail as quickly as possible.
  • We strive to meet with the incarcerated individual the same day we are hired. Rest assured, along with legal counsel, we’ll convey your care and support.

  • Aggressively pursuing case dismissal.
  • Skillfully negotiating a fair and just resolution.
  • Providing strong and strategic representation at trial.
  • Thoroughly exploring options for appealing a conviction.
  1. Record Clearing and Reduction: We are dedicated to helping individuals move forward, even after a conviction.
  • Our team assists in reducing or expunging charges and convictions from your criminal record, even if we were not the original legal counsel.
  1. Unwavering Support and Understanding: We recognize the profound emotional toll criminal charges can take.
  • We want you to know that your life has immense value, regardless of your current circumstances. We offer support and encouragement to clients who may be feeling lost or hopeless.
