If you're navigating a divorce, custody case, or other family law matter in Utah County — and especially if a home sale is part of that process — having the right legal representation matters. Below is a curated list of Utah County family law attorneys recognized by Super Lawyers®, a peer-reviewed rating service.
A note on how this list was built: These attorneys were pulled from Super Lawyers' Utah directory and cross-checked to confirm they are actually based in Utah County (not just listed on a nearby-city page for search visibility, which is common practice on attorney directories). This is a curated starting point for your own research — not a ranked "best of" list, and not a personal recommendation or endorsement. I am not paid nor do I collect a fee from anyone appearing on this list.

Before You Choose an Attorney
A few things worth knowing regardless of who you work with:
Verify current standing. Check any attorney's license status and disciplinary history at the Utah State Bar's lawyer directory before reaching out.
Specialization matters. Utah's family law statutes (asset division, custody, alimony) have local nuances — make sure the attorney regularly practices in Utah County's 4th District Court.
If a home sale is involved, ask early how the attorney typically coordinates with real estate agents, especially if a short sale or time-sensitive sale is part of the settlement. This can significantly affect timeline and outcome.
