One of the Great ones! I called and he was more helpful in 15 minutes than I have gotten in days from other attorney! Could not recommend more highly! He could have taken my money and then said sorry can’t help. Instead he helped and directed me where I need to go! Thanks Branson!

My personal lawyer. I hate that I have to say that. But it is what it is, lol. I only look for the most reasonable people to deal with in life, and Mr. Branson West is no exception. I highly recommend this lawyer. He definitely helped tremendously in me, not going to prison. So yes, I would use him again because I can't fight for myself. But with him by my side, it's like an angel on my shoulder. Thanks 🙏 I definitely do recommend him 💯 he brought me great results.

Seriously the best place. All in had was a couple questions about stuff. That was stressing me out. And Carson not only talked to me about everything. He gave me multiple options. And the fact it's a flat fee practice. If I understood it correctly. Just makes it so much better. Thank you Carson for all your help

Branson is fantastic at what he does. He’s honest, communicative, articulate, and professional. I couldn’t have found a better attorney. He explained every detail of how things could play out in court and answered any questions I had very quickly. He worked diligently to get my case dismissed and for that I am forever grateful. The court process is intimidating and complex, but he navigates it well and provides detailed insight as to how it works.

Branson West is the best decision I made when hiring a lawyer! I was facing a lot of felony charges so when looking for a lawyer, I was stressed to say the least! From the moment I met Branson he was incredibly helpful, communicating with me often or answering any questions I had!! He truly made me feel like everything was going to be ok, and everything was! I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome!!! He was able to get all charges dismissed! If you’re looking at this review trying to make a decision he truly is a great attorney and a great guy! Good luck!

Excellent counsel ! Immediately! Responded with incredible efficiency and knew how to answer my question and guide me simply and easily!
— Troy Hoffman

Branson West is an absolute pro! He fought for 13 months for me on a case that should have been thrown out from the start. He absolutely embarrassed the prosecution by his performance in the court room. He never gave me false hope, and always was very clear about the risks, and I'm incredibly greatful that I trusted his expertise.

Branson is very good at what he does. He is extremely professional and has a well-received presence in the courtroom. His communication with me was always immediate and efficient. One of the things I was most impressed with was his ability to separate facts from opinion. Branson played out the possible scenarios of what I was to expect He asked me what MY goals were and what MY best case scenario was. I felt like I was a part of my own case and defense. He got the state to waive jail time. I am happy with the result Branson achieved for me and thankful I chose him as my lawyer.

I had a great experience working with Branson. He always responded within a business day (usually within minutes/hours) and was courtius and professional at all times. Cost of representation was given to me upfront, and was reasonable. I also feel confident that he found the best possible resolution for my charges.

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!!!

Frequently Asked Questions

Unless you are legally required to inform your employer upon any infraction of the law, you are not required to report it. Remember, a DUI charge is not a conviction. With the help of an aggressive and experienced Utah DUI attorney, you may avoid conviction or better yet, beat the DUI charge completely. Ultimately, it may be better to wait for the outcome of your DUI case to avoid putting strain on your employee/employer relationship. Contact Branson K. West, Utah's top DUI attorney, to schedule your first hearing for free and to discuss your case with no obligation.

When people get pulled over for a DUI in Utah, one of their main concerns is whether they will have to serve additional jail time beyond the time served after a DUI arrest in Utah. The answer depends on the circumstances, prior offenses, plus more. The most important thing to remember is DO NOT PLEAD GUILTY TO YOUR UTAH DUI CHARGE! It is crucial that you fight your Utah DUI aggressively with a DUI attorney in Utah who has the knowledge, experience, and compassion for your Utah DUI charge and situation. Call {phone} immediately for a free Utah DUI case review and protect your rights and freedom.

Depending on the circumstances of your arrest and number of offenses, you may be ordered to attend a driver's educational series program and/or undergo alcohol treatment which can run anywhere from 4 to 50 hours. An experienced DUI attorney can help you negotiate the best possible outcome for your DUI case in Utah. Contact Branson West Law Firm to learn more about Utah DUI penalties or to schedule a free DUI case review.

If you are convicted of a Utah DUI, you will be required to have an ignition interlock device installed in your vehicle. The amount of time you are required to keep the ignition interlock device varies depending on your age, number of DUI offense and any violations related to the device.

The Miranda rights for each citizen and non citizen are guaranteed by the United States Constitution. They are not required to be issued by police at the time of arrest. If this happens, your attorney may ask that any statements made to the police not be used against you in a Utah Court.

These rights include:

  1. the right to remain silent
  2. the right to a lawyer present while you are questioned
  3. the right to an appointed lawyer if you cannot afford one.

An arrest can be frightening and stressful. Don't hesitate to call {phone} for a free and confidential consultation or to get all your questions about your rights answered.
