McKay Burton & Thurman

McKAY, BURTON & THURMAN, P.C The roots of McKay, Burton & Thurman reach back to 1935 when three well-known Utah lawyers, Henry D. Moyle, David Lawrence McKay and Lynn S. Richards, formed a partnership. Their initial legal practice involved water rights, oil, gas, mining and related matters. Over time the firm added attorneys and it developed into a general practice, full-service law office. In 1945, Lynn Richards left the firm and was replaced by Wilford M. Burton, who had just completed a successful term as a Salt Lake City Judge. At that time, the firm became known as Moyle, McKay & Burton. In April, 1946, Henry D. Moyle resigned his position with the firm after being called to serve as a member of the Quorum of Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
