Criminal Defense 68%

As a defense attorney I have represented clients accused of a wide variety of crimes, from homicide to texting while driving. However, by far the majority of my clients have been charged with drug, and paraphernalia possession. I have served as defense counsel on Felony, Family, and Juvenile Drug Court Teams for over 15 years. I am experienced in blood, breath, urine, and field sobriety testing. Because of my experience on drug courts and in the court room, most cases resolve without a trial.

Child Abuse 32%

In 2012, I was awarded Trial Attorney of the Year, in recognition of my dedication in defending parents accused of abuse and or neglect of children. As a Utah County Public Defender I was primary legal defense counsel appointed to defend parents who were accused of abuse or neglect of their children. In that capacity, I represented clients in over 10,000 hearings and trials. I am currently on the Board of Directors of the Parental Defense Alliance of Utah.

David is amazing! My husband was accused of a terrible crime that he did not commit and David went the extra mile to do his own investigation talking to witnesses and recreating the timeline to prove there was no way that my husband was guilty! David saved my husband's life and we will always be fore...ver grateful for everything he did for us!

Knowledgeable, Experienced, Determined, and Reasonably Priced!

Mr. Boyer was absolutely amazing!! While I never hoped to need an attorney for a criminal charge, he made the process as pain free as possible. He truly cared about the outcome of my case. Mr. Boyer wanted to make sure I understood what was happening in my case at all times. Needless to say, I will f...orever contact Mr. Boyer if I need any legal advice. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone who needs an attorney.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
