Cyberstalking, cyberbullying, or electronic communication harassment charges in Utah are serious. This year, with everyone spending even more time indoors and online, allegations of electronic harassment charges are only increasing.
Under Utah law, you could be charged with cyberstalking if you have been accused of causing someone to fear their own (or someone else’s) safety and the result is “emotional distress." Since these crimes are based on intent and the feelings of others, you need an experienced legal team who will fight the charges against you.
With more and more interactions happening online, cyberstalking, cyberbullying, and harassment allegations are becoming more common. The lawyers at Brown, Bradshaw, and Moffat have decades of experience defending against hundreds of related charges.
If you have been charged with a cyberstalking crime, you may be subject to prosecution either where a message was sent or where a message was received. Whether you live in Utah or are being prosecuted in Utah from out of state, our experienced legal team can help.
Cyberstalking charges are more likely to be dismissed when a defendant has a good lawyer. Often, the prosecution cannot prove intent to harm or harass the victim, which is why it’s imperative that you have an experienced defense team on your side.
