David Mortensen
Stoel Rives LLP has named David L. Mortensen as office managing partner of the firm’s Salt Lake City office. He is responsible for the day-to-day management of the office and recruiting efforts to support the firm’s business in Utah. He will also oversee the move to soon-to-be-completed, new office space at 95 South St. at City Creek, where Stoel Rives will be the anchor tenant. Mortensen is partner in the Litigation practice group, with extensive experience in intellectual property as well as complex commercial litigation and represents some of the largest cities in Utah and has litigated dozens of high-profile cases for individuals and companies, both in Utah and across the United States. He received his J.D. from Brigham Young University’s J. Reuben Clark Law School and joined Stoel Rives as a summer associate nearly 25 years ago. Mortensen succeeds D. Matthew Moscon, who has made the transition from office management to continue his active energy litigation practice.
