Municipal, Local Government
and Special Districts

Smith Hartvigsen represents communities throughout Utah on a variety of legal issues. Municipalities with sophisticated in house attorneys, such as Box Elder County, South Ogden City, South Jordan City, Uintah County and St. George have retained us on specialty legal issues including land use planning, redevelopment, municipal bonds and water law. Communities without in house legal staff, such as Brian Head, Castle Dale, Cedar Hills and Mapleton have relied on Smith Hartvigsen for all their legal needs.

Smith Harvigsen is one of the leading law firms representing special districts in Utah. We are general counsel to Magna Water and the Twin Creeks Special Service District. In addition, our attorneys have represented special districts as bond counsel on municipal bonds, on water issues and other specialty legal matters, including the formation of special districts.
