John Elbert Cutler

John was the perfect balance of professional and no-nonsense. After speaking with several lawyers around Idaho Falls, he stood out as the most transparent and straightforward—which is exactly why I hired him. I'm glad I did—he helped me get the outcome I was hoping for. If you're looking for a solid ...lawyer who'll give it to you straight, call John Cutler. His assistant, Shauny, was also incredibly helpful and always available.

Mr. Cutler is a compassionate and patient person, and a knowledgeable, thorough and dedicated attorney. When you find yourself going through the criminal court process, especially for the first time, it can be seriously overwhelming, and there are seemingly pitfalls everywhere (forgetting or not kn...owing about the ALS hearing can have big consequences, for example). On top of that, the amount of shame or embarrassment one might feel to find one’s self in such a position can be intense. Mr. Cutler, as well as his staff, treated me with nothing but dignity and respect, and essentially held my hand through the entire court process. It was huge for me to not feel so alone, caught in a system that, until you are in it, many of us do not understand or have intimate knowledge of. This is a man who has spent the hours and hours to not only completely understand but also maintain official certification in police DUI procedure. He will turn over EVERY rock and exhaust any and all leads in establishing if it was or was not handled appropriately and by-the-book (even down to requesting calibration logs for police breathalyzers, and ensuring the right amount of time had passed between breath tests). While I have continued to make the life choices to not find myself in such a position ever again, I can say with absolute certainty that I would hire Mr. Cutler again in less than a heartbeat. Shout out to Shauny for also being a rockstar! Shauny is so kind and nonjudgmental. She goes above and beyond in ensuring you, as the client, are always well in-the-loop. Getting to chat with her at the office was a silver lining in an otherwise bleak situation. I cannot begin to thank you both enough for the work that you do.

I am very satisfied with Mr. Cutler and very glad that I hired him to defend me in my criminal case. I unfortunately have numerous felony convictions a long criminal history, and as a parolee Mr. Cutler fought for me and advocated for me in every way possible. While sitting in jail for only a f...ew months (parole hold) for a new felony, I was released with a treatment program! I thought I would be going back to prison. During my incarceration John was always very responsive and easy to get ahold of. I never had unanswered questions and always felt like a priority. His secretaries are definitely knowledgeable, professional and polite. They we’re so helpful and always knew what was going on in my case even while John was away from his desk. Thank you Mr. Cutler! And thank you Shauny!

John Cutler did an outstanding job representing me in a recent DUI case in ID. John has a very thorough and in-depth knowledge of the law, procedures, processes and provided me with specific counsel and advice throughout the entire process. He worked very well with the court/prosecutor/dept. of tra...nsportation/judge and was able to negotiate the best outcome possible for me. He was very good about explaining each step of the process to me ahead of time, and had good counsel and recommendations. He is optimistic but also pragmatic. Most of all he has a kind, patient, non-judgmental and compassionate demeaner which is invaluable during such a difficult process. And Shauny, his assistant, is the glue that holds everything together. She is always prompt, responsive and on top of the entire process. She makes sure you are always informed and have all the documentation needed and helps you through the process of completing steps you need to take. They really are a winning team and I would HIGHLY recommend Cutler Law Office to anyone needing legal representation. Doug
