"Hiring Tawni was a great choice. She was the only attorney that invited me to her office to discuss my situation. And I always felt like she cared about my case and was doing everything she could. Also, my result was fantastic, which speaks for itself. I would highly recommend talking to Tawni if you need an attorney to get you out of a tough spot."

"**⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Criminal Defense Attorney – Saved My Future!** I cannot recommend **Darwin Overson** enough! As a **criminal defense attorney** in Salt Lake City, he represented me with unmatched skill, dedication, and compassion. From our first consultation, he listened carefully to my situation, explained my legal options clearly, and fought aggressively for the best possible outcome.

He was always responsive, kept me informed at every step, and never sugarcoated the truth—yet made sure I felt supported during an incredibly stressful time. Thanks to his expertise, my case was resolved favorably, and I can move forward with my life. If you’re facing criminal charges in Utah, **do not hesitate** to hire Darwin Overson.
