Utah Legal Services 960 South Main Street, Salt Lake City, UT 84101

"This service is a mockery to the idea of "help" and made the entire situation worse than if I'd simply tried to represent myself, costing me tens of thousands of dollars and then releasing me as a client before my divorce was finalized resulting in additional court cases, fines, attorney's fees, and difficulty. Every single lawyer working here should be disbarred. They are soulless swine who claim to offer help and in fact do not have their clients best interest at heart, do not fight for their clients rights, do not understand domestic abuse despite citing it as one of the main things they help with, and do not care enough to even remember what's happening in the case. my attorney representing me asking me each and every time she spoke with me "what the case is about again" and not following through on any of the motions she promised to file on my behalf even when i would call to remind her multiple times a week, did not include any of the things in the divorce decree we discussed, and released me as a client before the case was even over. The attorney representing me even told me my case would be held over zoom, and did not answer her cell or office phone or respond to any of my emails or texts i sent asking for the zoom link the day before and morning of, only to finally call me nearly 2 hours into the in person court appearance to ask where I was and if i could make the 1+hr drive to get there in the following 10 minutes which i obviously could not. They did not fight for or include the medical bills i incurred at the hands of my abusive ex in the divorce decree despite promising to do so to ensure i was not left with tens of thousands of dollars in medical debt at the hands of my abuser, they did not fight to ensure i got at least a portion of the sale of my own stolen vehicle when my ex stole and then illegally sold my vehicle midway through the divorce case without my signature on the title and then illegally spent the full amount they sold the vehicle for despite it being listed as a marital asset, they did not fight to ensure i got my ring back when my ex sent a friend to my home to steal my engagement ring and threatened me with violence, they lied to me and told me the police reports and text messages i had showing my ex was abusive could not be used in court because they are "hear-say" something I have learned since speaking with other attorneys is not true, they did not represent me in a later motion to enforce the divorce decree leaving me on my own despite having evidence in their possession that the motion to enforce was nonsense and despite the fact that i was actively recovering from multiple traumatic brain injuries and desperately needed help resulting in me owing thousands in attorney's fees, they threw me under the bus lying to my ex's attorney saying that I was being uncooperative and refusing to communicate despite there being a record of emails back and forth between myself and the attorney representing me. Absolutely atrocious to offer to help those who desperately need it most and completely butcher their case through a combination of negligence and lack of concern for the clients who are, by definition in order to receive their assistance, abuse victims. This is the absolute worst place someone needing help can go to seek it. Unconscionable treatment of humans and indescribable, seemingly intentional negligence that will put you in a far worse place for having received their "help"."

"This service is great if you want to understand what you most likely already understand. These are paralegals, or similar that explain your options to you. My experience was a bit frustrating as she did not speak fluent English and did not seem to listen very well, then repeated irrelevant already shared information tk me that was not of importance the first time she shared it with me."

"This was a major waste of time for me. They did not even talk to me about my case over the phone. Utah Legal Services is not available to protect the lower class. The money comes from the local government. This is one of those non-profit shell companies that participate in “legal” money laundering. Best of luck!"

"Terrible. And time-consuming. Once I was screened and actually made it through to an advisor, she sounded like she worked for the plaintiff and not the defendant. In other words working for the people who are suing. I just had a general question that I knew the law to and she almost yelled at me telling me that I was wrong. Maybe it was just this one attorney advisor, maybe she was just having a bad day, I don't know because I never called back."

"I was treated very badly by an employee of chevron in fact I was discriminated against by this man. So I called utah legal services to get help with this very serious matter and was told they would not help me. I am a disabled senior and really need the help. It just tells me that the very urgent matters that we have to deal with in this life go unheard and brushed under whatever rug is closer to that issue Very sad!!"
