Gregory P. Hawkins-Your Family's Lawyer
Gregory P. Hawkins has been practicing law for over 25 years. He is senior partner of Hawkins & Sorensen LC and leads a team of knowledgeable and experienced lawyers.
"Every four minutes someone in America dies unexpectedly. And 95 percent of those who die, whether expected or not, die without being legally prepared," Greg says. "Not preparing needlessly adds cost, effort and distraction at a time when your family should be focused on mourning your loss." (See www.amIprepared.com)
Greg has successfully handled cases from complex brain injury to securities fraud, from federal civil rights to simple real estate, from personal injury to complex contract disputes. Whatever the case, wherever the court, whomever the opposition, Greg has been there and is comfortable, committed and on your side.
Today, Greg's great passion is helping people prepare for the inevitable. Greg reminds us that, "proper planning will not soften the sorrow of your death for those who survive but it will make their lives much easier. Properly preparing is not expensive and is so much simpler and more convenient than people realize."
It is especially critical for parents who have children with disabilities; they need special preparation. "Again, it is not difficult or expensive, but the consequence of not preparing can be devastating to the person with a disability," Greg says. (See www.UtahSpecialNeedsCenter.com)
Another of Greg's passions is adoption law. An adoptive parent himself, Greg is one of the most experienced and knowledgeable adoption lawyers in the state. He understands the worry, heartache and heavy cost that accompany the adoption process when it goes bad.
When it goes smoothly, everyone wins. If done correctly, from the beginning, there is much less chance of conflict. But when conflict arises, Greg is the lawyer you want in your corner. Greg is armed with decades of experience, having finalized and litigated hundreds of adoptions. His in-depth knowledge of adoption law and procedure will bring you comfort and success.
Greg is known as "Your Family's Lawyer"--but doesn't consider himself a family law attorney. He doesn't usually take divorce or custody cases, which is the primary role of a family law attorney. Although he has successfully litigated scores of divorce cases, he turns away many more such cases than he takes.
Many people pay a yearly fee to talk to a lawyer. Once you are Greg's client, there is no fee to talk. That's why they call him, "Your Family's Lawyer." His purpose is to be his client's lawyer for life. He wants to help families through life's legal challenges and to help them capture life's legal opportunities.
Greg has never charged to talk to anyone--client or other. It's not a gimmick; he simply believes it is part of being blessed with a legal education. As a practical matter, he doesn't charge clients because if you charge, they hesitate to call until their problem has escalated to a crisis and becomes very expensive.
"If you charge people to talk, then they stop talking," he says.
Greg's clients have their very own lawyer that their families can call without charge-- anytime. And he actually answers the call.
Greg's offices are located at 5710 South Green Street, right off the freeway in Murray. You can call him at 801-747-3390 or see his website at www.YourFamilysLawyer.com.
