Providing exceptional legal skills is merely the starting
point to become a client’s law firm. How well the attorneys
apply and deliver information, advice or strategies is what
really makes the difference in client satisfaction and what
leads to long business relationships. Kirton McConkie
clients know they can count on their attorneys to translate
the complexity of legal and business issues into practical
information. The resulting insights and perspective help
clients take more confident action.
As the largest law firm in Utah, Kirton McConkie offers a
broad scope of practice areas benefitting clients in two ways.
First, the interrelationships cultivated between areas allow a
multifaceted approach to a client’s situation. The firm can
shape a legal team with the right people, at the right time,
based on a client’s stage of development or legal needs.
Second, based on extensive legal and industry knowledge,
the attorneys can spot marketplace trends to offer real-world
guidance. Whether it is corporate or real estate transactions,
commercial litigation, intellectual property protection,
employment concerns or tax planning, Kirton McConkie
mixes business value with their legal advice to help clients
resolve problems and achieve their long-term goals.
Though based in Utah, much of the firm’s business is
national and international. Kirton McConkie represents
multinational and foreign companies with business interests
in the United States and assists American companies in
global markets. At last count, the firm has done work in
150 countries and every state in the U.S.

Since Kirton McConkie has maintained a rather low-key
profile over its fifty years, preferring a quiet dedication to
client service, many people are unaware they have crossed
paths with the firm’s work in their daily lives. For instance,
visitors to and residents within City Creek Center may be
surprised to find the firm participated in all aspects of
this mixed-use development, the largest ever undertaken
in Utah—including the shopping center, residential condominium
projects, 5,000 stall parking structure as well as
the retail and commercial office leasing.
Other facts about the firm include:
• Experience across a wide range of industries such as
biotechnology/bioengineering, construction, consumer
products, direct sales/MLM, education, energy, financial,
franchising, healthcare, information technology, insurance,
medical devices, natural resources, nonprofits,
pharmaceutical/nutraceutical, real estate, sports, technology,
telecommunications and transportation.
