About Salt Lake Country Criminal Courts

There are a lot of them. Basically, if you were charged with Misdemeanor B or below within the limits of a city that has a justice court, the case will go there.  If you were charged with a Misdemeanor B or below in the unincorporated areas of the county, it will go to Salt Lake County Justice Court. If you were charged with a Misdemeanor A or a felony, it will go to either the West Jordan District Court or the Salt Lake District Court.  If you were charged with federal crime anywhere in the county (or even the neighboring counties), it will go to the federal court in Salt Lake City.

Courts Where I Take Cases

I am licensed to practice criminal law anywhere in Utah, but my office is in Salt Lake City so I focus my defense practice on Salt Lake County and the surrounding counties: Weber, Davis, Utah, Summit, Wasatch, Tooele.

That includes any of the state, city, or federal courts located in Salt Lake City, West Jordan, South Jordan, West Valley, Heber, Park City, Provo, Ogden, Farmington, Bountiful, Holladay, Cottonwood Heights, Murray, Millcreek, South Salt Lake, Grantsville, Tooele, Orem, American Fork, Sandy, Draper, Centerville, Layton, Kaysville, and anywhere else within an hour's drive of Salt Lake. I'll also go down to Carbon County (Price and Helper), because I like that drive!

For locations in Utah outside that area, just contact me and we'll talk about it.
