Environmental and Natural Resources Attorneys in Utah
Kirton McConkie attorneys advise clients across a broad spectrum of environmental and energy-related matters. From regulatory compliance to resource development, our Utah environmental attorneys help businesses navigate complex state and federal legal requirements while supporting sustainability and growth.
Our attorneys have vast experience in areas like energy, water, air quality, mining, and environmental impact. We routinely represent clients before the Water Rights Division and consult on water law throughout the western U.S. Our team also advises on wetlands permitting, site remediation, and environmental assessments for properties with potential hazardous material concerns.
In the energy space, we represent many clients in energy, mining, land development, and water rights matters across Utah and the Intermountain West, including:
- Independent power producers
- PURPA-qualifying facilities
- Renewable energy developers
- Wind, solar, geothermal, and natural gas operators
We frequently draft and negotiate lease and option agreements for renewable energy projects, especially in the solar sector, and provide strategic legal guidance for early-stage and startup energy companies. This guidance includes support for capital raising, corporate structuring, technology licensing, intellectual property, and navigating EPA and state-level environmental regulations.
Whether you’re launching a new venture or expanding an established operation, our environmental, natural resources, and energy attorneys deliver industry-informed counsel to help you succeed.
