My career interests are to practice Transactional Corporate Law, including Business Start Up, as well as Real Estate Law, Estate Planning Law, and Intellectual Property Law. I am currently licensed in Arizona, Pennsylvania and Utah, after having moved to Phoenix from Philadelphia in September 2019. I currently serve as General Counsel for a bioengineering company. I handle everything from their Business Transactional Agreements, Private Placement Memorandums, and Corporate Structures to Intellectual Property Assignments, to Employment Law and Beach of Contract settlements. Responsibilities include writing and executing agreements, drafting court pleadings, court appearances, mergers and acquisitions, transactional documents, managing expert specialized legal counsel, legal research and anticipating unique legal issues that could impact the Company. Conducted an acquisition of an entire line of intellectual property from a competitor. In regards to other clients, I am primarily focused on transactional law for clients in a variety of industries including, but not limited to, real estate investment, property management, and e-commerce. Work is primarily centered around entity formation and corporate structure, corporate governance agreements, PPMs, opportunity zone tax incentives, and all kinds of business to business agreements. I have also recently gained experience with Estate Planning law, drafting numerous Estate Planning documents for people such as Wills, Powers of Attorney, Healthcare Directives, and Trusts. I was selected to the Super Lawyers Southwest Rising Stars list for 2024 - 2026. Each year no more than 2.5% of the attorneys in Arizona and New Mexico are selected to the Rising Stars. I am looking to further gain legal experience in these fields of law as well as expand my legal experience assisting business start ups, and also trademark registration and licensing.

Jared S.
I'm a business and estate planning attorney with more 20 years of experience. I started in private practice and as a prosecutor, then spent years as in-house counsel for an international oil and gas company. Today I run Flex Legal Services in Orem, Utah, where I draft and negotiate contracts, handle business transactions, and serve as fractional general counsel for companies that want steady legal guidance without a full-time hire. I also help families put practical estate plans in place. I'm licensed in Utah, and I speak English and Spanish.
Richard M.
Richard "Rick" Mortensen has practiced law continuously in Utah since 2006. For most of that time, he worked in-house, including stints at two international mining companies, two direct selling/MLM companies, a large ecommerce retailer, and an accounting/fintech firm. He also has extensive litigation experience, having represented plaintiffs and defendants in every stage of litigation, including jury trials and appeals. His current role is as a fractional general counsel for businesses of all sizes.
"This was my first commercial lease, and the contract was lengthy and complicated, so I’m very glad I had Rich to help me through it. He was professional, patient, and took the time to explain everything clearly. Since English is my second language, that meant a lot to me. Rich was very thorough in reviewing the contract and took the time to have regular calls with me to walk through questions and details. He also communicated directly with my leasing agent when needed, which helped keep things moving and get some of the issues sorted out. I really appreciated the time and attention he gave throughout the process. His guidance made me feel much more comfortable with my first commercial lease, and I would definitely recommend him to others."

I love to learn, and I love solving problems. That's why I became a lawyer, and learned to solve legal problems for individuals and businesses and help them fix things when there's a snag.

My main focus is estate planning and business transactions, but I have had many practice areas throughout my career, including criminal defense and prosecution, civil litigation from neighborhood squabbles to corporate contentions. I have also worked in bankruptcy, family law, collections, employment law, and personal injury. I stand ready to assist in any area to which I feel I can be of service, but will not try to fake it if I do not know the area of law I am being asked to serve in.

Liability Protection Legal Questions and Answers
Liability Protection
Design-Build Contract
Texas
Can a design-build contractor be held responsible for design errors in a Design-Build Contract?
Can a design-build contractor be held responsible for any design errors or deficiencies that may arise during the construction process in a Design-Build Contract? I am considering entering into a Design-Build Contract with a contractor for a construction project, and I want to understand the extent of the contractor's liability for any potential design-related issues that may arise. I have heard conflicting information about the allocation of design responsibility in such contracts, and I want to ensure that I am fully aware of the legal implications before proceeding with the agreement.
Darryl S.
Yes, under a Design-Build Contract, the design-build contractor is typically responsible for both design and construction, meaning they can indeed be held responsible for design errors or deficiencies that arise during the construction process. I recommend you have a lawyer specifically review the contract you have with the db contractor to see the exact language regarding design errors and responsibility
Liability Protection
Event Space Rental Agreement
Texas
Can I include a clause in an event space rental agreement that limits the liability of the venue for any damages or injuries caused by the event attendees?
I am in the process of renting an event space for a large gathering that will include various activities and entertainment. I am concerned about potential accidents or damages that may occur during the event and would like to know if it is legally possible to include a clause in the rental agreement that limits the liability of the venue for any injuries or damages caused by the attendees. I want to ensure that I am not held responsible for any incidents that may happen during the event.
Darryl S.
It is possible to include a liability-limiting clause in a venue rental agreement, but its enforceability depends on jurisdiction and clear, fair language. Venues often disclaim liability for attendee negligence but cannot waive responsibility for gross negligence, willful misconduct or safety violations. You can ask that the renters indemnify the venue for claims and require them to secure event-specific insurance, including general liability and liquor liability if applicable. . Consulting legal counsel to review the agreement and align with local laws is essential to minimize risks during your event.
Liability Protection
Release of Liability
North Carolina
What are the potential legal implications of signing a release of liability form for a recreational activity?
I recently signed a release of liability form before participating in a recreational activity, and I'm concerned about the legal consequences should I sustain any injuries during the activity. While I understand that such forms are intended to protect the organization or individual organizing the activity, I'd like to know the extent to which signing this form could limit my ability to seek compensation for any harm that may arise from the activity, especially if the organizers were negligent or acted recklessly.
Jeff G.
The real answer here is going to depend upon several specifics: the activity, the release document itself, whether you had any negotiation of the document before signature, the actions of the organization/individual who asked you to sign the release, YOUR actions, the location of the activity, etcetera. Long story short, without knowing the specifics, a factual and complete answer is impossible. Sorry!
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
