Gregory B. Smith is not only a highly skilled legal bulldog, but a compassionate person, too, who's been helping people fight for their rights for nearly twenty years. You can feel confident that he is the BEST UTAH LAWYER FOR YOU.

His clients love him because he's very down to earth, and more than willing to take their calls 24/7, and even on weekends. In fact, he often meets with his clients at restaurants, instead of at his law office, so that the client can relax, and talk freely. By doing this, Mr. Smith can really get to know them, and get a solid background on the case. However, he is happy to have you meet at his office, too.

Although he is one of the nation's top criminal defense attorneys, his fees are very reasonable. He's handled literally thousands of cases, and his training as a prosecutor will be put to good use for you. He's respected by prosecutors and judges, too, because his style does not alienate them.

That means you will get the best result possible, whether that be a dismissal, acquittal or a negotiated settlement. Even if you are guilty, and the evidence seems completely stacked against you, Mr. Smith can help. Do NOT plead guilty, or even talk about your case, before calling Mr. Smith to see what he may be able to do for you! Trying to handle a case on your own is not wise, and can have disastrous long-term consequences.

And because he answers his own phone, you'll never have to worry about not being able to get in touch with him, which is a concern many clients have when dealing with attorneys on their complex legal issues. In fact, Mr. Smith describes himself as the "King of Communication" when it comes to answering his clients' phone calls and text messages. It is not uncommon for him to get back to his clients within literally minutes, especially when they text him.

Mr. Smith has always been a go-getter. In high school, he was class president and earned a college football scholarship because of his hard work, and ability to set high goals and achieve them - his college team even won the National Championship. Football taught him a lot about life, and how to fight and win within the rules. However, due to many shoulder dislocations, he had to undergo surgery twice and abandon his dream to play in the NFL. Instead, he became an attorney. Now instead of sacking quarterbacks, and blocking for runners, he helps people get Justice in Utah! And YES, he can help you, too!

Right out of law school in the early 1990s, Mr. Smith gained valuable insights while working as a city prosecutor in Texas, under the direction of more experienced lawyers. He quickly decided he could do more good helping those who were accused of crimes, moved back to Utah and took the Utah bar exam instead. Since then, Mr. Smith has helped literally thousands of people cope with the Utah legal system.

Unlike some attorneys who practice in many areas of the law, Mr. Smith focuses on CRIMINAL DEFENSE ONLY. This means that he is not a "jack of all trades" when it comes to your case. Mr. Smith is highly skilled in the area that need the most - defending your rights, your criminal record, and your liberty.

Whether you have been charged with a DUI, Drug Crime or Drug Charge including possession of narcotics or paraphernalia, fraud, forgery, white collar crimes, assault or battery, fish and game violation, domestic violence, or you violated your protective order, Mr. Smith will be in your corner, and will fight like a bulldog.

Mr. Smith is also a wordsmith, and has studied many foreign languages. And because he is highly trained in language skills, he can find the right words for your best defense possible, which is critical when it comes to law. He taught high school Spanish for more than a decade, and was the school's Teacher of the Year. Because he taught school for so long, and has his own kids, parents can trust him with their children's legal matters. After all, he knows parents love their kids more than life itself.

Mr. Smith is a "lawyer's lawyer", too. He puts on seminars for other attorneys, so that the legal community can benefit from his skills and knowledge. He has also authored four books, and written many articles. His legal insights have landed him on Good Morning America twice, and his letters have been published in newspapers around the country.
