Robert C. Miner

I had a court case back in 2008 and Robert Miner represented me. Fast forward 11 years and the court had put a warrant out for me, saying I had not turned something in. It was so ridiculous. Even though so much time had passed and he was no longer representing me, he still was very responsive to my e...mails and phone calls, and assisted me pro bono in getting my case dismissed. Awesome lawyer that really cares, even 11 years later.

Mr. Miner began representing our son after one of his associates(Gus Chin) who was handling the case was asked to leave the firm. The reason for his dismissal was unknown to us. Gus Chin, the associate, appeared before the judge with our son the day before his dismissal, never informing our son tha...t he was leaving the firm until that day. Gus was aware of this fact at least a month or more before the court appearance. This information would have been extremely relevant in determining whether to stay with this firm. There was little if any preparation before going before the judge and no contact or consultation with the District Attorney's Office until minutes before the judge heard the case. I am certain Gus Chin's focus was on finding new employment instead of representing his client. Although the blame lays mainly with the associate, I believe that Mr. Miner who agreed to continue representation for our son should have taken his responsibility more seriously. He gave the case minimal attention and any progress that was made was done by us and our son. Our phone calls were rarely returned and e-mails were somehow lost or ignored. Because of his lack of interest our son's sentence was much longer than necessary. He also charged us an additional amount ($2500) on top of the $5000 that was payed to his associate. If this extra money had been beneficial it would have been well worth it, but we felt that it was unwaranted and had no positive effects on the case. It is unfortunate there aren't more reliable reviews on attorney's. We would never have hired anyone working at this firm. If you want a below average attorney go with this Mr. Miner or take my advice; pay a little extra and hire an attorney who will give 100%.

I’ve hired Rob on multiple ocations spanning over a decade. I’ll spare the details of the charges other than they have ranged from Class C misdiminors to two 3rd degree felonies. Every case was handled with precise detail and attention. Every phone call was returned and every question addressed. If i...t wasn’t answered it was probably the wrong question to ask. He will not make promosises he can not keep. This man came to visit me in jail... If I ever needed someone fighting in my corner and looking out for my best interest it was Rob Minor. I’m very thankful for my current status as free individual with the same rights and privlages that only law I abiding citizens get to enjoy. I do not have a felony on my record. Rob has guided me through very dark times. If he advises you to do something, DO IT! If you know the law better than Rob, then represent yourself. Best of luck to you.

I had retained am attorney who said he was the best in Utah and had even written a book on Utah DUI LAW. His fees were twice what other attorneys charged but he said he could do what others couldn't. I was very disappointed with his representation and started calling around. Mr. Miner was quick ...to respond. Explained thing my attorney hadn't been willing to, was honest in his evaluation of my case and that I should stay with the attorney I was with. He also explained the plea deal I had been offered and options I might was to consider discussing with my attorney. He did all this and didn't charge me a dime although I did offer to pay him for his time. I felt the time and advice he gave me was priceless. I hindsight it was a major mistake to retain who I had. It cost me over twice as much as it should have, and the results weren't what he had represented. Mr. Miner on the other hand listened and then explained the situation in a manner I understood. I so wish I had come across Mr. Minor first, and should I ever need services like this again he's the first I will call.

Well first off it was Sunday morning when I was stopped, after I was released from the police station, I was stressed out. I went online to one of the DUI websites and filled out my info, within about an hour I recieved a call from Mr. Miner with info to help my case free of charge. He also did ...not try or let me hire him on the spot, he told me to think about it, call around, and read his reviews to make a informed decision. We set up a time he would call me back later that day (Sunday). After hours of searching and review reading I decided he was the lawyer I wanted to represent me. When he called me back we discussed my case more in detail. One Monday he drove up to Ogden to meet with me before I trained him. I talked with him about my concerns since my case was time sensitive. I was a little apprehensive at first though because he didn't tell me what I wanted to hear....i wanted to hear your going to get off or don't worry about it, but he was strait forward with me and told me exactly what I could face, what I was facing, and how he could help me win. Which is why I chose him. He was very compassionate and understanding of my situation. He could have told me exactly what I wanted to hear but didn't and was honest from the start. I needed my case resolved quickly and effectively which is exactly what he did. He set up my DLD hearing (which unfortunately we lost), But through the DLD hearing he learned vital information and was willing to go the distance to win my case. Unfortunantly, I couldn't afford to take the time I needed because of the slow moving courts and I needed it done fast... so he settled my case fast and with the best out come possible. He got my charge reduced to impaired driving non-revertable, no community service, no jail time, and even got me released from having to get an alcohol assessment. In 60 days I can get my license back (unfortunantly I'll be out of country and have to wait till I return), he also told me how to set up my prime for life class. He is affordable and will work with you on payments, we talked once about payments and he didn't even bring it back up until the case was resolved. I was very fortunant to have had Mr. Miner in my corner. My case was settled in a little over a month which meet my needs. I would recommend Mr. Miner to anyone if they are charged with a DUI or any other matters. Do yourself a favor and atleast give him a call.
