Biography
Mr. Simon obtained his Bachelor’s degree in History in 1994 from the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), graduating magna cum laude with membership in two honors societies - Phi Alpha Theta and Pi Gammu Mu. Upon obtaining his undergraduate degree, Mr. Simon scored a 173 (99.4%) on the National Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) and gained admission to the University of California at Berkeley, Boalt Hall School of Law. Mr. Simon graduated from Boalt Hall in 1997 with honors in Contracts, Real Property and Antitrust Law and received the prestigious General S.K. Yee Boalt Hall Scholarship from 1994 through 1997.
In nearly twenty-five (25) years of legal practice, Mr. Simon’s professional experience has been extensive, advising on a wide variety of different substantive areas of law such as the Sherman Antitrust Act, Clayton Act, Lanham Act, Worker Adjustment & Retraining Notification Act (WARN), Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation & Liability Act (CERCLA), Federal Wiretap Act, Federal RICO Act, and §1983 civil rights actions. Mr. Simon is involved routinely as lead defense counsel in high profile, multimillion dollar litigation in areas including catastrophic personal injury claims, complex construction defect claims, real estate development disputes and commercial business litigation at the trial court level and on appeal. His appellate cases, in some instances, have been the subject of law review articles and cited in various federal practice treatises. See e.g. Christy Sports LLC v. Deer Valley Resort Company, 555 F.3d 1188 (10th Cir. 2009).
Mr. Simon has been recognized repeatedly as one of Utah's Legal Elite in Utah Business Magazine and as a Mountain States Super Lawyer. He is also a Master of the Bench in the Aldon J. Anderson Inn of Court, an invitation-only private association of Utah attorneys and federal and state judges.
