Don't Hesitate to Hire

I can't say enough good things about Brenda and her assistant Amy. I first met with Brenda when I was still in shock after my ex-husband left our family via text for his mistress. I interviewed several attorneys and immediately felt the most comfortable with Brenda. While I wasn't ready to file at th...at time, I was so grateful for her support and advice. A couple months later I did file for divorce and I couldn't have asked for better service. She is an excellent communicator and advocate. She answered questions/emails quickly and billing was transparent. She always made sure I was well prepared and understood every step of the process and exactly what to expect. I felt overwhelmed at some points, but always knew what I needed to do next. She helped me achieve the best possible outcome for myself and my kids. She also provided excellent advice when I needed the help of our local police department to stop my husband's girlfriend's harassment of me and my son. Truly she was part legal counsel and part counselor. I never thought I would find myself going through a divorce, but I couldn't have been in better hands. Don't hesitate to hire Brenda!

Post Divorce

I hired Brenda for a post divorce case and could not have been happier with the outcome. She was extremely knowledgeable and professional throughout the case. Brenda is a very smart and competent lawyer and I would recommend her to anyone seeking legal services.

Brenda Beaton Awesome Attorney!

I originally hired a divorce attorney out of Salt Lake City where I live. He seemed smart and I figured he was similar to most attorneys and would do a great job. Long story short, I fired him. He was not a good advocate, a very poor communicator and I was being taken. A friend of mine recommended... Brenda Beaton, she is based out of Ogden, but well worth the drive. However, I needed a "great" attorney, so I interviewed and hired her that day. Brenda is a take charge attorney. She is intelligent, knows the law, and fought hard for me. She communicated everything she was doing and would always reply if I had questions or concerns. I highly recommend hiring Brenda.

Dedicated and Caring

My career has always included dealing with diverse types of people. In these roles I have learned how important listening is and asking the right questions vs. a lot of meaningless questions. Brenda treated me the way I always try to treat my customers, with empathy and respect. Because she listened ...so well she was able to give me great advise and work through my legal issues in as painless a manner as possible.

Best advocate, EVER.

Brenda was an amazing asset to have in my case. She lives and breathes her work to do the best job possible for her clients. She works tirelessly to give the best possible advice. She was prepared, knowledgeable, and pursued our desired outcome in a professional manner. I was so glad to have her with... me at court. I can't recommend her highly enough.
