Top best Contracts Lawyers in ZIP 84102 | 4 available

I practice commercial, construction and appellate law in Salt Lake City, UT and Pittsburgh, PA, and am licensed in both states. I graduated from Duquesne University School of Law in 2004, was an executive editor of the law review, and began my career by clerking for a federal judge in Pittsburgh, the Honorable Terrence F. McVerry.. Following my clerkship, I practiced construction and commercial law at Eckert Seamans Cherin & Mellott, LLC in Pittsburgh for nearly eight years. In that time I handled a broad range of matters, including lawsuits over construction and business disputes, architectural malpractice, environmental and real estate disputes, disputes over LLC agreements, trade secret litigation and insurance coverage litigation. In addition to the range of lawsuits I handled, I worked on drafting and advising clients on construction contracts, in values ranging from a few thousand dollars to 55 billion dollars, as well as commercial and real estate contracts, easements, non-disclosure agreements and other commercial agreements.. After leaving Eckert Seamans, I spent three years as a public criminal defense lawyer in Allegheny County. In that capacity I handled over a thousand cases and tried a litany of cases involving charges of attempted homicide, felony drug and gun possession, assault, fraud and charges stemming from a SWAT team standoff, to name a few. Between civil and criminal cases I have tried over thirty cases to verdict or other final decision, handled countless evidentiary hearings, and have won appeals, as the appealing party, before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court (three times in a year), the Pennsylvania Superior Court, the Ohio District Court of Appeals, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.. In 2017 I started my own practice, which is mostly commercial contracting, construction contracting, commercial leasing, the purchase and sale of businesses, and otherwise advising businesses. I often serve as business and personal counsel to other lawyers, and I occasionally get appointed to represent clients in complex constitutional appeals.
