Is the AG’s Office Utah’s law firm?
One of the Utah Attorney General’s constitutional functions is to act as counsel for every state agency. In essence, the office is the state’s law firm. State Agency Counsel comprises approximately 25 attorneys at the AGO.
Our office has attorneys who work exclusively for various state agencies as their attorneys and specialize in specific areas. Amanda Montague oversees this little-known office function every day.
This episode of Legally Speaking explains just how important the work performed by these attorneys is.
