Anabella Bonfa
Mitch and his firm were my co-counsel in two hotly disputed cases in Utah and sponsored me as Pro Hac Vice counsel in Utah. I can't say enough good things about Mitch and his team. I worked with Mitch for more than a year all the way through pre-trial preparation and he is an outstanding litigator. He's smart, he understands litigation strategy and his work product and writing skills are excellent. He also knows how to deal with clients and handle client stress and worries. We worked side by side for a long time on depositions, written discovery, pre-trial work, etc. and every step of the way he provided excellent support and guidance with local customs. I handle a lot of litigation in other states and when choosing counsel to sponsor me Pro Hac Vice it's always difficult because you want someone who knows the local customs and who is highly competent who can provide back up, but who won't step on your toes. Mitch was always there when needed even with short deadlines and his firm handled court arguments on some interim issues which went to the appellate court. Normally I wouldn't agree to have local counsel handle these matters, but I really felt his work was outstanding and I trusted him completely. He obtained great results too. Thumbs up for Mitch and his firm.

Mitch handled our adoption case and we couldn't have asked for a more professional and thorough attorney. He was very responsive and made the process simple for us. We would highly recommend him. Thanks Mitch!
