About Devin
Biography
Devin Quackenbush was born and raised in Utah County, Utah. He became interested in the law at an early age. During his undergraduate studies at Brigham Young University, Devin interned for the FBI in Quantico, Virginia. From his experience at the FBI, Devin's interests in the law increased and he decided to pursue a career as an attorney.
Devin went to law school at Creighton University where he was the Executive Editor of the Creighton Law Review. He was published in the 42nd volume of the law review for his case note on child immunizations and religious exemptions. During and after law school, Devin found opportunities in Alaska, beginning with working for the District Attorney's Office in Palmer, Alaska. Devin passed the Alaska Bar Exam and was offered a position as a judicial law clerk for the Honorable Eric Smith of the Alaska Superior Court. Working as a judicial law clerk for Judge Smith, Devin was exposed to a variety of cases from attorneys representing people seeking their day in court. As a judicial law clerk, Devin gained a unique perspective of why some techniques utilized by lawyers are more persuasive than others.
After his clerkship term ended, Devin accepted a position at a prominent law firm in Anchorage, Alaska. Devin represented clients in cases involving professional liability defense, municipal litigation, appellate practice, employment and labor law, products liability, commercial litigation, and professional licensing issues. Devin also assisted in cases for high-profile politicians, multiple insurance companies, as well as for heavy equipment, helicopter, firearm and a number of other product manufacturers.
Although he was successful in Alaska, Devin decided that his home state of Utah is where he wanted to be. Devin returned to Utah and became licensed to practice law in Utah. Devin's successful practice continues to involve the same areas of law that he was involved with in Alaska. In addition to those areas of the law, Devin's practice has expanded to include personal injury law, family law, contracts, real estate and wills/estate planning. Devin discovered that often good people and businesses find themselves in precarious situations with the law and need quality legal representation to pursue their rights. Devin endeavors to help these people and businesses by aggressively representing their interests. Devin's track record of success in Utah has benefited people from all walks of life.
