Jones Waldo Holbrook & McDonough, PC

For nearly 140 years, Jones Waldo has worked with clients that have enriched the economic, social and cultural climate in Utah. We were there for the transition of Walker Bank to Western Bancorp and then again as Wells Fargo took the reigns. We have represented Ballet West, the Utah Food Bank, Utah Symphony/Opera and many other nonprofit organizations. The Salt Lake Tribune has been a client for many years and the firm was instrumental in the formation and growth of Mountain Fuel Supply (now Questar). We were also privileged to have Calvin L. Rampton (three-term Utah governor) with us from 1976 to 2007. It is clear that the firm is an important part of the fabric of our community. We hope to remain so for years to come. 1875: Firm founder Joseph Rawlins forms his first law partnerships with Ben Sheeks. 1891: Rawlins partners with Edward B. Critchlow.
