Defending an Ogden DUI or alcohol-related charge can be quite challenging. This is due to the fact that the main witnesses against you are the police, and there is scientific evidence from the breath test and/or blood test being presented against you. The videotape of your arrest, the officer’s testimony, and your performance on the Standard Field Sobriety tests may also present damaging evidence against you. This is when you need DUI lawyers in Ogden.
The first thing you need to know is that, if you want to preserve your driving privileges, you need to request a hearing with the Driver License Division within 10 days of your arrest. This process can be time-consuming and confusing, but a qualified DUI lawyer in Ogden will handle this process for you!
Our firm focuses heavily on the defense of those charged with misdemeanor and felony offenses of Driving Under the Influence (DUI) (sometimes called “driving while intoxicated” or DWI in other states), as well as other alcohol-related crimes. Our DUI lawyers in Ogden have obtained much of the same training as police officers in the detection of drunk driving and the administration of the field sobriety tests. This allows us to use the officer’s training against them in your defense.
We also have Jason Schatz – Utah’s FIRST attorney (one of only two attorneys in Utah) who is Board Certified in DUI Defense.
We have a fully staffed knowledgeable, experienced legal team ready to help you.

Attorney Jason Schatz says:
“My partner, Steve Anderson, and I started our firm over ten years ago. I would say during the past ten years, I’ve had approximately 150 DUI cases a year. In total, I’ve handled over 1,500 DUI cases. Steve has probably represented about 75 a year, so there’s another 750 cases. Plus we have three other attorneys, so between the five of us, we’ve done well over 2,000 DUI cases. Add to that our advanced field sobriety and roadside detection training. Now that is a lot of experience and knowledge in one firm!”
