We worked with Zachary Starr at Moody Brown Law for over two years on a complicated custody and litigation case. It was one of the best decisions we made. My ex-wife tried to leave the state four separate times and kept trying to bypass court orders. Zack was steady and knew exactly what to do every step of the way. What impressed me most is how well he understands the local judiciary. He knows how the commissioners and judges in Utah County approach things, and that insight made a real difference for us. He shoots straight. He tells you exactly where you stand and what your real options are. No fluff, no false hope. Just honest, solid counsel. He is patient, considerate, and thorough in everything he does. He protected our son and our family through a really hard time and we will always be grateful. If you're looking for a family law attorney in Provo, Zack Starr at Moody Brown Law is the real deal. I'd recommend him to anyone. Zack cares deeply about his clients and about the money they spend. Many times he helped us avoid costly litigation, and I don't think I would have been nearly as lucky if I had had another attorney. My experience would validate that, unfortunately. I will always be thankful for everything this man did for our family . read more

I went through a very high-conflict divorce, and Marilyn's experience was indispensable. She understood the timing of each step, how to resolve issues strategically, and how to keep us out of court. It wasn't quick, but in the end it was absolutely the right path. I'm deeply grateful for her guidance through one of the most difficult chapters of my life--I can't imagine navigating it without her. Shortly after the divorce was finalized, I needed legal help again due to escalating issues with my ex's partner. Her behavior was aggressive and was negatively affecting my children. Grant and his team stepped in with clarity and strength. They advocated for my kids, and helped establish safety and stability for all of us. Over the past seven years, they've remained steady, validating, and genuinely supportive. There aren't enough words to express what their dedication, skill, and compassion have meant to me. In moments that were painful and emotionally overwhelming, their professionalism and care were truly invaluable. read more

Most well versed firm. Professional and experienced. Office staff & paralegals also impress with their kindness and knowledge.

Eric Jacobson and Molly Jordan were very helpful during my process and court proceedings. Molly was invaluable in helping me gather and organize my documents and Eric was great in representing my interests. Both answered my questions and doubts in a timely manner. I highly recommend working with them. read more

Marilyn and her staff are by far the best around. Their professionalism and focus exceeded all expectations, despite already being known as the best around. Marilyn navigated all of my concerns and changed the entire course of my life for the better. I was continually amazed by her response time and selflessness. Based on her character, knowledge, and hard work, I would do anything for her. I recommend the services of her office to anyone in need of help. I can't say enough good things. read more

I would NOT use Marilyn Moody Brown!! They kept extending the process for no reason other than getting more money. She didn't discuss it with me just did it. She put a lean on my house the day BEFORE she filed the final stipulation. I told her to forget it because I didn't have any more money. She said no it's ok you don't have to worry about the money. Dummy me thought she was going to finish the stipulation and send it to court without charging more. Nope she filed the lien first. She didn't even let me know the judge signed it!! DO NOT TRUST MOODY BROWN LAW!!!!! read more

Grant Dickinson is amazing! He represented me in a criminal case and I cannot begin to say enough good things about his work! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a criminal defense attorney, hands down! read more

I hired Zachary Starr to represent me in my divorce and he did a horrible job. I don't want to get into all of it but he let me sign a divorce decree giving my ex wife alimony for the length of the marriage. Since then I have had several divorce lawyers tell me that is rarely done and even my ex wife's lawyer told my current lawyer she was surprised that Mr. Starr didn't say anything. She just put it in there thinking my Lawyer, Mr. Starr, would not allow that it and would be reduced to half the marriage length. This potentially could cost me over $500,000! I understand that I signed the agreement and I am responsible for signing it. That said, you hire a lawyer to know what they are doing and to watch out for you since we didn't go to law school and don't understand everything. Mr. Starr definitely did not watch out for me. If Moody Brown Law lets a poor lawyer like Mr. Starr work for them, I would be very hesitant on hiring anyone from that firm. But for sure, do not hire Mr. Starr. If you read this and still hire him, It's all on you! read more

Moody Brown Law was phenomenal!! From very first contact scheduling a consult, all the way to the end, their entire practice was amazing. Efficient and thorough.

Grant Dickinson has been my attorney on a few different circumstances, and with each one, he has been able to help me entirely. From family justice, dealing with DCFS, to criminal charges. He is professional, knowledgeable, and there for his clients best interest. I'm grateful for this practice. They have been more than successful in helping me with justice!! And they have the best paralegals around!! So win win!! read more

Miles Brody of Moody Brown Law was not my lawyer or the defendant's but I felt it important to share my experience. Mr. Brody was a witness and former divorce lawyer for the defendant in the trial I was involved in. Lawyer Mark Barnes and his client, I will refer to as EJP, both stated Mr. Miles gave false testimony he claimed to have personal knowledge of. His testimony was deemed unreliable by the court. I was led to believe that Moody Brown Law was a reputable law firm, but it is appears it may not be so. Perhaps Mr. Miles gave false testimony in attempt to "zealously defend" his former client, but EJP stated he made outright lies. It was very sad to see his reputation torn apart and ruined and I felt bad for him. I personally tried to defend some of Mr. Brody's testimony to no avail. Mark Barnes and EJP insisted his statements were bogus and I guess the judge agreed. It is up to you if you want to spend your hard-earned money on a lawyer that was accused of lying in a court to "zealously defend" you that later may be challenged. I would look elsewhere for honest and reliable representation just in case your lawyer's character is brought into question like it did during my trial. I do not recommend this firm or lawyer. Either Brody Miles or Mark Barnes is deceitful; it is not my place to judge or make the choice for you. read more

We used Brody. I can't in good conscience give him more than one star. Our case was agreed upon through mediation. This was, however the absolute worst case scenario if we went to court. What these lawyers seem to forget is if you have someone you call a client, you're in the customer service business. After a while, it gets really annoying when you're paying someone almost $300/hr and they ignore you for weeks, after missing a deadline they imposed on themselves. Never mind all of their bills are sent "due upon receipt". We spent 11 hours in mediation (with a week old toddler) and finished 95% of the agreement. It then took OVER SIX MONTHS to actually complete this agreement. Countless ignored emails, missed deadlines, and yes I have ALL those receipts. Zero urgency in getting this complete, I had to drag this across the finish line. Also, the excuse after missing a deadline by weeks, ignoring 5+ follow-up emails and saying "or sorry I thought I sent that email". That doesn't fly, especially when you use it multiple times, you're not fooling anyone. In short, if you're considering using this firm, don't. Run. Horrible value, horrible experience, horrible timeframe, just outright horrible. read more

My experience I retained Yeico for $5000. In the few weeks she blew through the money revising my divorce paperwork and defending a protection order, which she didn't even defend, Grant Dickerson was to defend it. Last minute he handed it over to Brody Miles (who did a decent job btw). But I do no feel I got $5000 worth of services. I retained another Law office in their stead. The entire time Yeico was constantly behind the eight ball defending motions but did not put any motions in herself. We were constantly playing catch-up and every time we made a move my ex had an attorney who was already ahead of us. They did not have an aggressive offense and left me in a worse position than when I started. read more

Moody Brown is the best! Sometimes I consider divorcing my wife just to use their services (just kidding). Sincerely, Moody Brown's staff is the most competent, and highest skilled Family Law firm in Utah! I have multiple friends who have been on the winning side of having Moody Brown represent them, and sadly multiple friends who have been on the losing end of going against Moody Brown. You literally cannot afford to not hire Moody Brown, and you need to hire Moody Brown before your spouse does! read more

Grant Dickinson with Moody Brown Law represented me and my family through a very difficult and challenging divorce/parental interference litigation. I cannot even begin to fully explain how helpful and comforting it was to have his professional knowledge and experience throughout. He was absolutely amazing at every step! Grant and MBL were the right choice and well worth every penny we spent to represent and help protect our family. https://www.moodybrownlaw.com/page/att_d_grant_dickinson read more

DO NOT USE GRANT DICKERSON!! I am writing this review in hopes of saving others money and the nightmare that Grant put me through. Simply put, Grant will literally agree to whatever your spouse's attorney suggests no matter how absurd the request. It has cost me a fortune to fire this guy and pay a new attorney to undo all of the ridiculous contracts Grant advised me to agree to. He does not fight for anything! Once he has your retainer you can never get a hold of the guy. His communication is poor and always at the last minute. I would receive a phone call from him letting me know that I need to appear in court the same day. It has cost me thousands to undo the Grant damage. My new attorney was shocked at what Grant and I agreed to. He has been able to overturn almost everything from health insurance for my ex to lowering my alimony. read more

Super knowledgeable, they do their research. Grant can turn the worst time of your life into a positive experience. I feel like he really listens to your issues and understands how to help. I highly recommend! read more

worst. Had to fire her. Pay for a bad decision caused by her lack of responding to my emails and phone calls. She deletes bad reviews.
