Spencer J. Salcido

I lived in Utah for a few years during college. I had a DUI-Drugs in 2000, and discharging a firearm within city limits down in St George in 2001. I live in MA now, where both of those convictions make me disqualified for life for any firearms ID. With those 2 convictions on my record I would neve...r be able to own or purchase a firearm of any kind for the rest of my life! Benny (Spencer Salcido) determined that having my DUI expunged would remove it from my record. He was also able to negotiate with the St George prosecutor, and have my discharging a firearm conviction reduced 2 steps down to an infraction. With the expungement and reduction complete, I was able to apply for a firearms license in MA, and was approved with no questions. Benny was very knowledgable about the process, and walked me through all the steps. The St George prosecutor took a long time to get back to us about the reduction, but Benny stayed on him to make sure it got done. I would highly recommend Benny to anyone needing an attorney for this kind of criminal record work.

When I met Spencer I was in I bad spot legally and struggling just as a person. I was out in the hall thinking of what to do. I didn't even know he was a laywer and he came and helped me out and explained some legal things to me out of kindness. I was facing 5 charges in one case, 4 misdameanors a...nd one was a Felony. He took a very strict approach with my case. The thing I liked about Spencer was that he never sugar coated anything. So I knew what to expect. He was very upfront with everything that was going on. The prosecutor wanted me to serve 30 days in jail. Long story short.. I never did a single day in jail. My felony got dropped as well as 3 other charges. I plead guilty to one misdameanor and paid a very small fine. It was the best case scenario BY FAR. I don't even have a car and he came and picked me up before court when I missed the bus I was suppose to take to get there. Very nice and genuine person. In the end of the day he helped me get back on my feet and be able to put court behind me. I would reccomend Spencer "Benny" to anyone. I had a lawyer in a previous case that showed up the day of court and was like.. so what happened again? It was embarrasing and not helpful. Spencer ended up helping me on that case too and was very instrumental as well. Overall I think he is above and beyond an amazing lawyer. He actually cared that I got through the process and wasn't just there collecting a check.

Spencer (Benny) was very helpful, considerate, and effective. This was my first experience with an attorney ever and a good experience. Run-ins with the law are worrisome, always, but a good attorney takes the stress off. It would have been very difficult for me to deal with this while not present in... Utah. Benny smoothed everything out. He entered my plea in abeyance and my case was dismissed after the 364 day period. Thanks Benny! Keep up the good work.

Originally called Brother Christopher and somehow ended up with Spencer, Benny, or whatever. Nice enough guy. Somewhat newly licensed at the time. The most basic of representation. Minor criminal offense but I just as well have not had an attorney and would have received the same sentence while savin...g the $2000 fee. He did his job, though. I guess.
