DUI Attorney Utah

You Have Deadlines Approaching in Your DUI Case!

When you were charged with a DUI you may not have been told that you have two major deadlines which are rapidly approaching after you are arrested for driving under the influence. If you ignore them, the consequences could be devastating.

The 10 day deadline

If you don't request a driver's license hearing in the first 10 calendar days, you will lose your license, regardless of how good your case might be. And there's nothing an attorney can do about it after the fact.

No Obligation Advice

The 5-14 day deadline

The second deadline is to contact the court no less than 5, nor more than 14 days. If you miss this deadline, the court WILL issue a warrant for your arrest and officer may be sent to your home or place of employment to arrest you.

Call Now

We've helped people all over Utah reduce, drop and clear charges. Look what our customers have to say about us.

Called Branson and left a message. Within minutes received a text that he was in court and would call later. An hour later he called, gave me great advice, and said he didn't want to charge me for something he felt I could do on my own. I followed his advice and things went pretty much exactly as he had explained. The outcome was better than I dared hope. I would highly recommend Branson West!!!

Branson is one of the most kind and loyal attorneys. He gave me great advise on a case. He took the time to answer my phone calls and texts. He really cares for his clients: and getting the best resolutions. I would recommend him to anyone in the Utah area. When you are going through a hard time----he really takes the time to coach you and listen. He is kind and I treats his clients with such good care.
‐ Emily Chu, Posted March 1st 2023 on google
Branson took care of my case exactly the way I thought it should have been. He and his team aka Hailee were and have been all I could have hoped for. I think I found him after a simple search brought his name up when he was doing an add or promotion. Sometimes things just click and this was one of those times. I would recommend him to anyone. If you find yourself in need of a fighter in your corner Branson is a good choice.

‐ Steve Thompson, Posted January 26th 2022 on google
Branson West is a very honest hard working attorney that handled my case with the utmost respect. He was always very prompt when responding to any questions I had. If you happen to need a defense attorney in the Salt Lake City that will truly work for you, not make empty promises, and most certainly work for a fair price, his office would be my first call. He was just the advocate I needed for my situation. He did what he told me he would do for the original price he quoted for me. I believe in him and his ability 100%. He is now helping me finish everything up nearly three years after the case began. Thank you Mr. West! -Paul
