Vigorous Criminal Defense and Family Law Representation in Provo

When your freedom, your reputation, or your family relationships are on the line, having aggressive and trial-tested advocates on your side is critical. Salcido Law Firm provides comprehensive legal defense from its Provo office located at 2545 North Canyon Road. Founded in 2008 by brothers Jerry Salcido and Chris Salcido, the firm has earned a statewide reputation for unyielding client defense across the Fourth Judicial District Court, local justice courts, and appellate benches throughout Utah County. When you need a lawyer who is not afraid to take on the prosecution and challenge questionable police tactics, their team provides the strategic courtroom power necessary to protect your future.

The criminal justice system in Utah is notoriously tough on defendants, often imposing severe mandatory penalties, driver license revocations, and permanent records. The attorneys at Salcido Law Firm take a proactive, detail-oriented approach to every case. By conducting independent investigations, scrutinizing constitutional search and seizure violations, and retaining technical experts, they force prosecutors to meet their burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

Tenacious DUI, Drug, and Traffic Defense

Driving infractions and alcohol-related arrests carry severe consequences under Utah statutes, including immediate administrative license suspensions and potential jail sentences. If you need to hire a criminal defense lawyer following an arrest on University Parkway or Interstate 15, the firm provides aggressive advocacy:

• DUI and metabolite offenses: Disputing breathalyzer calibration logs, blood testing chain of custody, and field sobriety testing procedures in state justice and district courts.
• Controlled substance allegations: Defending clients against drug possession, distribution, and manufacturing charges through pre-trial motions to suppress unlawfully gathered evidence.
• Violent crime and domestic violence charges: Protecting clients accused of assault, battery, and protective order violations while asserting self-defense rights.

Compassionate Family Law and Divorce Advocacy

Beyond criminal defense, Salcido Law Firm maintains a respected domestic relations practice.
