FIRM SPOTLIGHT
PARR BROWN GEE & LOVELESS
SALT LAKE CIT Y, UTAH
Parr Brown Gee & Loveless is known throughout the West for its many heavy
hitters in construction litigation and real estate. Whether representing
large general contractors or heavy civil engineering companies, the firm’s
lawyers have broad experience in construction defect claims, payment and
performance issues, and mechanic liens-type cases. After 10 years of working
with the firm’s attorneys, Gerry Monson, former corporate secretary at Layton
Construction Co. Inc. says, “We’ve never been put in a position where we
haven’t received immediate attention. … I thought they did a very good job
of keeping me informed of the legal matters they’re dealing with. We’ve
been extremely satisfied with their services.” Parr Brown is also top-notch
at counseling developers with real estate transactions, as highlighted a few
years ago with its representation of Salt Lake City’s Major League Soccer
team and the launch of Rio Tinto Stadium.
