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.

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY

My husband and I hired Attorney Brenda Beaton for the adoption of our grandson after attending a court hearing of a close friend of us going through a very difficult divorce which was successfully terminated in favor of our friend. We are very impressed with Brenda's job in court, efficiently handle...d our case in a timely manner in a very supportive way, we always felt understood by her. Brenda has the ability to anticipate what needs to be done, she is very well prepared in the court hearings seemingly knowing exactly what the judge wanted. We are very thankful to Brenda for her excellent work she has performed in every step of the way in the adoption process with favorable results in all the court hearing we had. We will highly recommend Brenda to others, she is a great attorney, efficient and understanding and ready available when we need it to talk to her.

Best in the state

I hired Brenda for my divorce and found her to be VERY knowledgeable and intelligent. She could very well be the best attorney in the state. Her fees were reasonable; she listened intently, and really cared about my case. For example, there was never a time where she didn't answer my questions, em...ails, or phone calls the same day and in a timely manner. She even called me about my case while she was at home. I would hire her again in a second. In fact, there is probably no else I would trust with my case.

Very happy with the resolution of my legal dispute.

Ms. Beaton handled my legal problem quickly and with far better results than I could achieve on my own. I'd been spinning my wheels for months trying to resolve a Failure to Appear on my own. But her knowledge of the law, and her sterling reputation with law makers not just in Davis County but around... the state helped bring my dispute to a favorable result. I never imagined it would be solved so easily. Not only did I feel well taken care of but I know many others with equally glowing stories about her abilities. Thank you!
