Life is far too short to take a chance on your legal defense. I was charged with DUI in Utah and started to seek out the lawyer that would best help my situation. I sat down with about 10 different lawyers before having a friend refer me to Melissa Fulkerson. I found out with my initial consultation ...that she was different than all of the lawyers I met with previously. She was no nonsense from the start, and was very upfront about what she could and couldn’t do based on the case I described. I felt so great about my consultation with her that I made the arrangements to hire her that day. She has been by my side throughout a very drawn out legal process, and because of her dedication and professional skill set, I was not convicted of a DUI. I hope you never find yourself in my situation, but if you do, please don’t waste any time or effort. Call Melissa. She is one of the best in the business.

I was charged with two second degree Felonies, as well as 4 class "A" misdemeanors. Being in my career field this could have devastated my entire life. After four other Attorney's failed to do the job requested, (Which was not accept any sort of plea related to drugs or alcohol), My case was enti...rely dismissed. Keep in mind that Melissa had only been to two ten minute court appearances out of the eight continued hearings. On the second hearing date (She attended as counsel) she was able to complete the Job by pointing out the State's lack of evidence against me. She is tough as nails, yet approachable whenever you need her guidance. Melissa knows her sh--, and will call the State on it when necessary. She is the best Attorney that I have ever worked with, and would highly recommend anyone needing help to at the very least consult with her before hiring other Attorney's due to cheaper cost. Melissa saved my career, my reputation, and basically, got the job done quickly, and to my satisfaction.

Melissa is incredible. I was referred to her by another lawyer friend, and she was by my side from day one. This was the only time I have ever been in trouble with the law and I was terrified, humiliated, and depressed. Melissa stayed relentlessly positive and optimistic, and made sure that I was doi...ng OK and understood what was going on. She responded to all of my texts and emails quickly and I truly felt like I could trust her with this critical point in my life. She fought for me the whole time and we were able to obtain a very fair outcome for my case. I really appreciated her attitude because she never made me feel like a criminal or a bad person. On the contrary, she always reminded me that this one bad act didn't define who I was, and that my life would move on and get better. She kept pointing out the light when I was in a very dark place. I hope I never need an attorney again, but if I did, or if any of my friends or family needed an attorney, I would turn to Melissa in a heartbeat.

I was arrested for a DUI in Salt Lake City. This had the potential to devastate my career and also my family life. I researched the top DUI attorneys in the state but was also directly referred to Melissa by a couple friends who she helped in the past. Melissa saved my drivers license and fought f...or me in court in a way where I felt very important to her. I watched other attorneys in court and she went above and beyond what other lawyers were doing. She was willing to fight for me and not talk me into just taking a plea. She spent the time and effort to help me get my case dismissed based on a violation of my rights. I was able to keep my employment and my license and it is thanks to Melissa Fulkerson. Thank you so much for saving my life.

There are no real words such as acronyms, verbs or adjectives to describe Melissa Fulkerson. I personally had the pleasure of hiring her services last year and let me add? Simply stupendous! Not only is Melissa stupendously Brilliant! She is also extremely high energy, knowledgeable, P...rofessional, to the point and does not mess around. I would highly advise anyone looking for a GREAT Attorney, to choose wisely and choose the best all the around. Melissa genuinely cares about her clients and their good reputations. My charge was a DUI. It was reduced to a much lesser charge due to her persistence. I only had to appear in court ONCE and that was the day of sentencing. (results may not be typical however depending on your case and evidence involved) I just know everything was stacked against me and we prevailed. Thank you so much you Melissa! I will recommend you any day. L.R..
