Criminal Defense

Esplin│Weight is an experienced and capable criminal law firm that aggressively defends clients accused of all types of felony and misdemeanor criminal charges. In every criminal case our goal is to protect the client's rights and freedom.

Our firm has six attorneys who practice criminal law, including three former prosecutors. Because they understand how prosecutors develop their cases and pursue convictions, they know how to uncover the weaknesses in the prosecution's case and challenge their arguments.

We defend clients accused of all types of violations of criminal law, including:

• DUI and related charges
• Drug charges
• Violent crime charges
• Theft, burglary, and other property crime charges
• Juvenile crime charges
• White collar crime charges
• Sexual assault charges
• Probation and parole violation
• Internet crimes such as identity theft and fraud
• Appeals of criminal convictions
• And others

In addition, we help clients obtain expungements of criminal arrests and convictions.

Make no mistake—Utah prosecutors are aggressive and seek convictions. To protect your rights and preserve your freedom, you need a knowledgeable defense team that will aggressively challenge the prosecutor's case. Esplin│Weight has extensive experience in defending clients in all state and federal courts in Utah. We have the ability to evaluate the strength of the prosecutor's case, and how to negotiate for lesser charges or obtain alternative sentencing options. In the event a resolution acceptable to the client is not available, the firm has extensive and successful experience in defending all types of criminal cases at the trial level. Our experience includes trial of the simplest misdemeanor cases to trial of complex criminal cases in all of the courts in Utah.
