Askar Law PLLC | Criminal Defense Attorney in Draper, UT (h1)
Askar Law PLLC is a criminal defense firm based in Draper, Utah, serving clients throughout Salt Lake City, Sandy, and the surrounding Salt Lake County area. The firm can be reached at (801) 761-4671. Attorney J.G. Askar spent ten years working inside the Utah criminal justice system, first as a public defender and later as a prosecutor, giving him a dual perspective on how cases are built and defended. That background now informs a practice built on personalized attention and case-specific strategy rather than one-size-fits-all representation.
The firm’s caseload spans drug offenses such as possession, distribution, and prescription fraud, along with felony and misdemeanor charges including aggravated assault, domestic violence, and theft crimes like burglary and auto theft. Askar also handles sensitive sex crimes matters and provides jail release assistance for clients navigating the earliest, most stressful hours after an arrest. Having prosecuted many of these same categories of cases, Askar approaches defense work with an understanding of how the state builds its arguments and where those arguments are vulnerable.
Askar Law’s standing in the Salt Lake County legal community rests largely on J.G. Askar’s decade of frontline experience on both sides of the courtroom, handling hundreds of cases as a public defender and prosecutor before turning that insight toward defending clients directly.
