Professionally managed and successfully argued

Robert helped me tremendously when I needed a lawyer for a DWI. Every step of the way was professionally handled and he really made me feel like my time and case was his only priority. He was punctual and always prepared and even used his vast knowledge of Utah law to provide me with not only the bes...t defense, but an aggressive offense that took what could have been a DWI down to impaired. Without Robert and his inestimable professionalism, I would not have fared as well as I had.

Up Hill Regulatory Battle with The State

As a former Restaurant and Bar owner in Utah I should have known when I booked the 325th show at my former business (that featured Male Dancers) I was on thin ice with the State Regulators. The Dancers over did it and on the front row of the show were two State troopers on undercover duty. The S...tate and the County came down on us in the hardest and most aggressive manner possible. Robert was there with me from the begging of the process to the end. Through County and State procedures. He prepared a great defense and a impressive appeal to the State Appeal Court. In a fair and honest proceeding he would have definitely prevailed (Summit County) but in the State proceeding where 99% of licensees lose, well you get the picture. I would use Robert for my business contracts and regulatory issues in the future.

Great job!

I hired Saunders Law to execute several lease agreements and they were all handled quickly and efficiently! I would highly recommend Saunders Law.

Excellent legal services in Park City Utah

Robert has helped advise me and my company in the last several years in business related transactions dealing with contract reviews for the sale and purchase of properties, fuel supply agreements for gas stations and disputes with vendors and former employees. Mr. Saunders has dealt with all matters ...quickly and professionally. He maintained excellent communication with me, his client and followed through on all matters. I'm lucky to have found such a good attorney in Park City.

Great legal services

I had Robert Saunders prepare some legal documents for me and take a matter to court. He was knowledgeable, responsive and well informed. The case turned out very well and I was very pleased with his representation. I plan to retain him again when I require legal services.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
