Firm Overview

Robert L. Brinton, Attorney at Law

Salt Lake City, Utah

When hiring an attorney, it is important to select one with not only a stellar legal record, but one who you can trust to advocate for your best interests.

My name is Robert L. Brinton, and as a lawyer, I have three simple rules:

  • Be professional
  • Care about the results I achieve for my clients
  • Work honestly on behalf of my client at all times

Honest, Professional and Experienced Practice of Law

These principles of professionalism, care and honesty have been the foundation of my practice for more than 42 years; they are the reasons for my continued success. These are why many of my longtime clients from New York still continue to call on me for legal advice and representation from more than 2,000 miles away.

After graduating from Harvard Law School in 1966, I spent a number of years working as an attorney in the airline industry — first at TWA and then at Eastern Air Lines. In 1980, I left the corporate sector to start my own firm in White Plains, New York.

Handled a Wide Range of Challenging Legal Matters for People Like You

In the ensuing years, I had the opportunity to handle a wide range of challenging legal issues, taking on Fortune 500 companies and international businesses and representing many high-profile clients along the way. During this time, I was also appointed by the former Chief Justice of the United States, Warren E. Burger, to serve for five years as the Executive Director of the Corporate Committee for Fair Compensation of the Federal Judiciary. This was a great honor and one that I am proud to have received. Although I returned home to Utah in August of 2004, I am also proud to say that the firm I started in 1980 still exists.

My Current Practice

I am currently admitted to practice in all of the state courts of Utah and in the U.S. District Court for Utah. I am also admitted to practice in New York's state courts, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York.

My legal practice concentrates on three primary areas:

  • Contracts
  • Dispute resolution
  • Employment issues

Within these general areas I handle a wide range of matters, including the preparation and drafting of real estate contracts, business contracts and employment contracts; the resolution of breach of contract disputes between businesses or between individuals and businesses; wrongful dismissal disputes; contract drafting and enforcement; contract litigation and more.
