How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Criminal Attorney in Salt Lake?
At the law offices of Overson Law, we understand that cost is often a major concern for defendants who are facing criminal charges. One of the first questions people often ask us is, “What does a criminal defense attorney cost in Utah?”
At Overson Law, we believe that every defendant deserves access to aggressive, experience-driven, high-quality legal representation in a court of law, which is why we work with our clients to provide flexible payment options. For example, many of our clients prefer to use a flat fee structure, which is available for many cases. We will sit down with you to discuss your payment options and look for an arrangement that is manageable for you. When we defend you, part of our role is helping to provide you with support and reduce your anxiety, down to the way we structure payments. Additionally, your initial consultation is cost-free.
