Utah's diverse landscape is easily matched by its diverse economic base. A growing business community creates many opportunities for companies in every industry. As the go-to law firm for many of the Rocky Mountain Region's most successful companies, Dorsey helps its clients meet legal and business challenges that impact their success. From technology and life sciences to financial services and energy; from consumer products, manufacturing and government, every client is a valued partner.

-Dorsey & Whitney LLP is one of the largest law firms in the United States. According to the National Law Journal, which ranks firms by number of lawyers, Dorsey is the 60th largest U.S. law firm. In The American Lawyer 100 list, which ranks firms by gross revenues, Dorsey is number 68.

-In 2007, Dorsey ranked 11th in client service performance by U.S. law firms, according to independent research asking in-house legal counsel at Fortune 1000 and other large companies to evaluate firms on 17 client relationship factors. The BTI Consulting Group ranked Dorsey among the top 30 firms for the third time since 2001.

-Dorsey has 18 offices, with approximately 650 lawyers and 850 support staff worldwide.

-The firm offers services in more than 50 different areas of legal practice.

-Elected to the managing partner role in January 2007, Marianne D. Short – a Dorsey Trial partner and former Minnesota appellate court judge – is one of only a few women in the top posts at AmLaw 100 law firms.

-Dorsey & Whitney was a 1993 charter signatory of the Law Firm Pro Bono Challenge, which asks firms to contribute 3% of billable hours to pro bono work. In 2007, Dorsey met the Challenge for the 15th consecutive year.

-Dorsey has represented clients in numerous landmark cases. Recent successes include one of the largest jury awards in Maryland history; a victory in a dispute over management of a nationally known retail/entertainment complex; and the dismissal, for a manufacturer of cameras and video equipment, of a $1.3 billion class-action suit.

-Dorsey was founded in 1912, when two prominent Minneapolis lawyers, one of whom was a sitting Minnesota Supreme Court justice, joined together to serve the area’s burgeoning business community.
