Repaired Criminal Record

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.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have known Spencer (Benny) since he started practicing law. From day one he was a great attorney and has only improved with experience and age. I often refer friends and clients to Benny for legal services as I do not do criminal law often anymore. I would not hesitate to send friends and family to Benny for legal assistance. I highly recommend Benny for all your legal needs."
