John Cutler, DUI and DWI Attorney on Feb 26, 2018
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I endorse this lawyer. I have known Kent since we both worked in the Bonneville County Prosecutor's office in the early 1990's. Kent is currently finishing his term as President of the Idaho State Bar. Kent is a very capable attorney and will take good care of you and your case.
