Holland & Hart’s Salt Lake City office was the leader in financial deals reported to the MountainWest Venture Group’s (MWVG) 2003 Utah Deal Flow Report. Attorneys in the Salt Lake City office handled more deals (23) than any other law firm in Utah. The MWVG tracks financial deals in Utah, including public offerings, venture capital/private equity fundings, other related fundings, and mergers and acquisitions and is Utah’s only comprehensive publication that tracks deals throughout the state.
The results indicate that regional and national firms have made real strides in taking away a large percentage of all Utah financial deals from local law firms. More than 50% of the deals were handled by regional or national firms and Holland & Hart handled 22% of all reported deals in 2003.
