Lori Nelson Biography :

As a family law lawyer my creed is: 'Do no harm.' The 'win at all costs' mentality can often hurt rather than help if we fail to appreciate our clients short and long term needs. Families with children must work together for years after the divorce is completed and the lawyers are no longer involved. That makes the long term perspective critical when advising and assisting clients through the trauma created by divorce. My goal is to help my clients achieve their best outcome by considering the divorce case in the context of their lives and not their lives in the context of the divorce.

Lori W. Nelson focuses her practice primarily in the area of domestic and family law. Lori’s case load consists of family law cases representing individuals of all sexes, ages and economic backgrounds, in trials, evidentiary hearings, mediation, and every other phase of domestic practice. Her cases have covered every aspect of family, including, but not limited to: divorce; modifications; adoptions; child support; and, complicated custody cases involving mental health issues. They have also involved, among other things: contract interpretation; probate law; intellectual property; real property law; water law; and, criminal activities intersecting in a family case. Lori has also conducted extensive legal research and writing including writing appellate briefs and trial memoranda. She has been named one of Utah’s Legal Elite by Utah Business Magazine in 2006-2008.

Lori was elected to a three-year term (2005-2008) as a bar commissioner for the Utah State Bar for the Third Division. She is the co-chair of the Utah State Bar Governmental Relations committee and the legislative liaison for the Family Law Section, past chair of the Family Law Section Executive Committee and has served as a member of the Judicial Council Standing Committee on Children and Family Law since its inception in April 2000. She was named Family Law Lawyer of the year 2001-2002 and is listed in The Best Lawyers in America 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 editions. Lori served as an adjunct professor of legal writing at Westminster College from 1994-2000.

Lori is a trained mediator with extensive mediation experience. Lori received her Juris Doctorate from the University of Utah in 1992, during which time she was a member of the National Moot Court Team, and a regional semi?finalist. As a third?year representative of the Women’s Law Caucus, Lori organized the first Women’s Law Caucus scholarship lecture with a panel who presented the Gender and Justice Task Force Report. Lori received her Bachelor of Science degree in Philosophy from the University of Utah in 1987.
