Nate Wall and Morgan James are the best duo around. I had bad legal counsel in my 2019 divorce, and for years trying to get custody of my kids. I spoke with Nate in 2022 and in 2024 I walked away from trial with what I wanted and more. Nate is the only attorney I’ll use going forward, and I know there will be more to come with my ex.

Cory Wall and Frances are absolutely amazing. I had a complex case and they took their time, were so through and handled my case with such care. Frances was always there to answer any questions and responded so promptly. They truly listen and care and support you the whole way. I could not have asked for a better law firm! I would absolutely recommend them. They also had very affordable rates. Thank you Wall and Wall and Frances!

When it came to trial, Steve drove home the overall theme of what we were shooting for and sold the sentiment with great appeal. He’s been doing this a long time, and his experience shows. I highly recommend Mr. Wall.

As a family law mediator of many years I have had the opportunity to work with each attorney at Wall & Wall Legal Solutions. To a person, each has demonstrated the highest level of relevant legal knowledge, ethics and client relations. I further attest to their skill in negotiations where the ability to understand, analyze and counsel their client as to strengths and weaknesses on all relevant issues was at hand; further, that they counsel their clients with what they need to know, not necessarily what the client wants to hear.I have mediated many difficult and complex cases with Wall & Wall and have always been impressed with their professionalism and competence. The same goes with their staff and paralegals. As a team they combine to offer the highest level of representation one could hope for. I strongly recommend each attorney of Wall & Wall for your needs.

Nathan Wall.Nathan worked with me for 2 years to resolve my divorce. This was a complex divorce including a trial. Nathan was point on throughout the entire process. He walked me through the entire case, at points "holding my hand" to ensure that as a laymen I understood all of the processes. Nathan is professional to a fault. He did a fantastic job during the trial in the face of a difficult opponent. The Judge was obviously impressed by his ability to go through the trial. I will always be grateful to Nathan. thanks - more than I can say. Ed

Nathan Wall is by far the most fantastic lawyer in the valley. He is honest, thorough, determined and has more heart than anyone in the industry. He has lead my case for the last 2 years and always makes sure my needs are being met. He's by far exceeded all of my expectations in representing me. If you're looking to for someone to get the job done the right way, Nathan Wall is your guy.

Steven wall, what can I say. Great guy and an excellent attorney. Steven does not settle like the majority of attorney's do looking to just make the quick buck. Wall and wall fights for their clients. Steven did a great job and Frances was right there answering any questions when Steven was in court. The receptionist was also very helpful and nice. If I had to drop anything off or send a message to Steven or frances, I would hear back from them quickly cause of her. If anyone needs an attorney, wall and wall is your answer. There's a reason that they are rated the best in Utah because they are. I recommend them to everyone.

Nate has been great in dealing with my case. My case has been one of the “crazy ones” and he’s been there to help myself and my kids the whole time. Thank you!

We were able to meet with Steven Wall about setting up a trust, and found out that it is not necessary at this time due to types and values of assets. That an attorney is willing to say "you don't need it" and thus give up potential income says a lot about his ethics. I would definitely refer others to this law firm.

Cory was wonderful to work with. He helped keep everything on track and was consistent, calm, and collected through everything. He worked quickly when needed and everything he filed was well written and concise. I will absolutely work with Cory again in the future!

Steven Wall with Wall & Wall attorneys has been been my attorney for many years. He has helped us through many difficult times from custody cases to criminal cases.

Cannot say enough good about Greg Wall and his skills as a family attorney. He literally saved me in my custody case when a half dozen other attorneys could not. He gets the job done! He’s available to talk without the hassle of multiple gatekeepers and listens and hears you as a client, validating your concerns and opinion. He’s honest, knowledgeable and a great attorney to work with.

Greg Wall has been extremely supportive as well as professional while helping me throughout my divorce proceedings. He demonstrates a deep understanding of family law and an unwavering commitment to protecting my rights and interests, as well as what is best for my children. He guided me through each step, explaining the legal jargon and intricacies in a way that was easy to understand. I felt like a priority, not just another case.

I've never had need to seek the help of an attorney in my life with respect to divorce until I met with Greg. He happened to be the best family law attorney for me at that time. He was nice, kind, unassuming and attentive when we first met till now. He explained everything to me to the best of his ability and in terms I could easily understand. Greg was always very responsive whenever I had questions and he represented me very well during our mediation and subsequent follow up hearings. I of course miss that he's semi-retired and working on part time basis but continues to look after and supervise the representation of my case effectively.If you're looking for a knowledgeable family law attorney at a reasonable price, check out my dear friend Greg.

I hired Cory initially for an adoption case in an extremely long (5+ years) complicated Dcfs case. Long story short, he turned it around and got my parental rights reinstated instead and closed my case quickly! For anyone that doesn’t know, this NEVER happens! He went above and beyond and literally made the impossible happen! We had all the odds stacked against us but he worked well with myself as well as the team. He fought tooth and nail to put our family back together and succeeded in roughly 8 months and I had been fighting 4+ years prior. I had several attorneys before him and got nowhere. We couldn’t be happier and I am forever grateful for his hard work and couldn’t thank him enough! If ur looking for a go getter in a family case I highly highly recommend hiring Cory Wall!

I am so grateful for Steven Wall. I was in need of a good attorney for a divorce matter that never seems to end. I had had two other attorneys, in the six years since my divorce, before I found Steven Wall. And, I couldn’t be happier that I found him. From the moment I met him he was kind, knowledgeable and listened. And, he immediately understood the dynamics of a complicated and dynamic case. He is no nonsense and is able to quickly get to the heart of the matter. Steven was able to bring my case out of the courts and into mediation. This was something other attorneys were unsuccessful in doing. In mediation I found Steven to be confident, very knowledgeable, compassionate and resolution oriented. He was truly able to find a solution that both parties felt comfortable with. And, on a personal note, I was touched by the care and concern Steven Wall showed for me throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend Steven to anyone who is in need. I now feel protected and heard. Thank you Steve!

Almost at the finish line of a stressful situation where my ex lost custody and it seemed as though my ex would actually get at least some of the kids back. Nathan Wall is very patient with my ups and downs and working with me when times are hard. Choosing lawyers can be very difficult but I honestly think that Wall & Wall family attorney offices are some of the best people you could put your hat in with.
