Estate Planning

Careful legal planning is the most vital step an individual or business can take to protect assets and pass them on as desired. An array of complex legal rules, potential liabilities (including taxes and long-term medical expenses), and even litigation can destroy hard-won financial accomplishments.

Estate planning is definitely not “one size fits all,” so it’s important to work with an estate planning attorney who is committed to assist you with your unique family and financial situations.

Adoption

There are many avenues in adoption, each one has its pros and cons. Adoptive parents, especially first time adoptive parents, are usually unaware of the issues involved with adoption. Right now you may be gathering the information needed to make some big decisions that affect many different parties. Regardless of the avenue you choose in the adoption process, an attorney is a valuable part of your success.

Is adoption right for you? It is a lifelong commitment and it is a question that deserves deep and thoughtful discussion with your spouse, counselor, nuclear and extended family. It seldom works out how you envision. Adoptive relationships can be just as frustrating and stressful as they are sweet and loving. Every child is unique. Every relationship has its own dynamics. Please, call now. You can speak with an experienced adoption attorney about your specific situation for free.

Bankruptcy

US bankruptcy laws are complicated and filing requires a huge amount of paperwork. In addition, the rules change almost every year. It’s virtually impossible to file everything correctly without the assistance of an attorney. In addition, a Wasatch Legal Services can help you determine if bankruptcy is really the best option for you and your family. If you determine bankruptcy can help you, your attorney can guide you to the type that best meets your needs.

Filing bankruptcy shouldn’t be looked at as failure. Rather, it’s a new beginning, a chance to put old mistakes and unfortunate situations behind you and start anew.

We want to make sure that your life is impacted as minimally as possible by the charge you are facing, and we will help make that happen to the best of our abilities.

Immigration

On June 15, 2012, the Secretary of Homeland Security announced that certain people who came to the United States as children and meet several key guidelines may request consideration of deferred action. An applicant who is granted deferred action will not be deported and qualifies for a work permit renewable every two years.

Seize the dream now with deferred action for dreamers!

Wasatch Legal Services, PLLC is committed to helping eligible undocumented youth (DREAMers) avoid deportation and exercise prosecutorial discretion set forth in the immigration framework by President Obama and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.

Juvenile Defense

Many parents assume that “everything will work out okay because we’re good people” when their child is arrested. However, the District Attorney doesn’t necessarily see it that way and may charge your child with a crime… no matter what you tell them! Juvenile Defense is critical whether or not your child is guilty of a crime. He or she deserves to be treated fairly by both law enforcement officials and judges. And if you think your child acted wrongly and deserves appropriate consequences, I will work to ensure that your child is not punished excessively or unfairly.

Wasatch Legal Services, PLLC will ensure that your child’s self-esteem and welfare are given the best consideration.

Personal Injury

If you’ve been injured due to the negligence of another, don’t jeopardize your case by hiring a random lawyer. Attorneys at Wasatch Legal Services, PLLC work hard to obtain the best possible results for their clients.

If you are not familiar with personal injury law, the insurance companies will take advantage of you. Our car accident lawyer knows Utah tort law. By hiring an attorney you will get the best possible result for your injuries.

You pay nothing upfront when we take on your case. Since we work on contingency basis, you only pay if you get money. This allows you to focus on treatment and recovery from your accident, while we focus on what we do best.
