  • Client Testimonials

    “The best. I had a difficult divorce. At a time I needed to modify the custody arrangement, I really felt like they cared about the wellbeing of the kids and what was best for them. The advice and counsel I received make me comfortable in vouching for them. They know the ins and outs and made the whole thing as painless as it could be. They took time to explain processes to me in a way I could understand, and laid out all the options for me. I would recommend McConkie, Hales and Jones to anyone who is considering anything to do with divorce, separation and modifications.” - Joe S.
