When I first meet and retained Jason it was because, in his words, he's the best DUI attorney in Utah. He does know DUI law, I will give him that, but he implies he can do things that he can't. I also found he often got details of other cases mixed up with mine and when I would correct him he would... argue rather than check the facts. He is not easy to deal with and doesn't listen well. When I would ask a question he often spent more time chastising me about it rather than answering it. In the end I had to hire another attorney to complete the case. I found many attorneys tought the wins and imply they can do the same for you. What they don't tell you is about the losses. And when I retained him we didn't have much information so there was no way he could have predicted an outcome. At times I felt he was working for the prosecutor and not me. He didn't let me make decisions about the case, he wanted me to just trust him. He charges a flat rate, one of the highest in Utah. There is pressure from him to retain him asap. Then again this was true of other attorneys I talked to. Jason was not a good fit for me. He might be for you but I can't recomend him.

I hired Jason after getting many opinions about my case. Our first consultation was in the evening while he was on vacation. I was being charged with a DUI. I was talking on the phone not paying attention and had a accident. I got a better than expected result in my case and would recommend Jason to ...my friends and anyone facing DUI charges. He is knowledgeable but most importantly I felt like he understood the situation, and had my best interest at heart. There hopefully isn't a next time but I would hire him again in an instant.

Like other reviews have stated, I spoke with several lawyers before meeting with Jason Shatz of Shatz Anderson & Associates. I thought I properly reviewed his listed credentials on-line, his own website, ratings & his listed client reviews from websites such as AVVO. Simply stated, I will regret my... decision to hire Jason & his law firm for the rest of my life. After signing his agreement for legal services contract & paying his representation fee of $6,500.00, I started experiencing problems with his services almost immediately. It was extremely hard to even get Jason or his paralegal assistants to even file GRAMA requests for information or pursue the collection of evidence regarding my case at all. Jason also would not present evidence regarding my case to the judge that directly contradicted the validity of the arresting officers allegations. Any attempt I made to discuss these & other issues with Jason about his law firms services were futile at best & met with nothing short of an attitude. These are just a few of the problems I personally experienced with his services. It is in my personal opinion that your future is best placed in the hands of another law firm. Sincerely, Brandon

When I was arrested on a DWID charge, the drug being marijuana. I was very frightened at the possible loss of my driving privileges. I wanted someone who was affordable and had a high level of knowledge and experience to represent me. I was out of state and didn't really have any connections in Utah.... My research led me to select Jason, mainly because I wanted someone who specialized. I know that circumstances and outcome vary but I was able to end up with a dismissal, I am not sure that would have happened had I selected another attorney. Jason answered all my questions and worked with me to a final solution that kept me driving.
