Utah's Own

To help support the state’s vital agriculture industry and to aid consumers in obtaining good quality food, the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food began the Utah’s Own program in 2002 with a $45,000 grant from the Federal Risk Management Agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. More recently the program has been funded by the state Legislature. When Utah’s Own began in 2002, it had 10 local companies as members. In December, number 201 signed up. Read more about the companies and products providing the best food on our tables.

Legal Elite

For nearly 10 years, Utah Business has published the Leal Elite list showcasing the state's best-of-the-best lawyers. Our goal has been to publish a meaningful and credible Legal Elite list - a list that Utah's business leaders can look to as a reliable directory of the state's top lawyers. This year, Utah Business' editorial team went to great efforts to improve and enhance the Legal Elite list. We began by soliciting feedback from various senior attorneys throughout the state. We wanted to know: What are we doing right? What are we doing wrong? We listened and put their feedback to work. The two major changes we enacted are:

- Each lawyer on the list must receive a minimum of 10 votes from their peers.

- Lawyers practicing 10 years or less will be listed as "Up and Coming."

In September 2009, more than 5,000 ballots were mailed to state Bar members, asking them to vote for peers whom they deem to be Utah's best lawyers. Bar members were encouraged to vote for lawyers whose work they have observed firsthand to be above and beyond, and whose services they would recommend to others. Lawyers were permitted to vote for up to 10 lawyers: five from within their firms, five from outside their firms. Self-voting was not allowed. Votes were tallied and the list was further vetted by a blue ribbon panel of judges. The judging panel included a collecion of senior attorneys covering practice areas and bringing a wealth of knowledge regarding Utah's legal community to the table. Utah Business received thousands of responses, and the resulting top vote-getters are alphabetized within the areas of specialty listed. We are proud to present the 2010 Utah Legal Elite.
