Buchalter continues to expand its Salt Lake City office with R. Jeremy Adamson joining as Shareholder and Chair of the Labor & Employment Practice in Utah. An experienced litigator and trusted advisor with an extensive track record in commercial disputes, employment law, and regulatory defense, Adamson brings a sharp legal mind and a business-first approach to one of the region’s fastest-growing legal markets.
“We are excited to welcome Jeremy to Buchalter,” said Adam Bass, President and CEO of Buchalter. “His strong leadership and legal capabilities align with our commitment to delivering exceptional results. Jeremy’s background in both private practice and as in-house counsel give him a well-rounded perspective to client service.”
This perspective allows Adamson to offer clients a clear understanding of legal risk, strategy, and operations. His litigation work spans breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, shareholder disputes, and contract matters. On the employment side, he advises companies on compliance with federal and state laws and defends them in class actions, wrongful termination claims, wage and hour disputes, and PAGA matters.
Adamson also has significant experience representing companies in regulatory investigations led by the Federal Trade Commission and Securities and Exchange Commission – giving clients critical guidance during high-stakes enforcement actions.
“Buchalter’s reputation for providing outstanding legal services and its growing presence in Salt Lake City made this an ideal opportunity for me,” Adamson said. “I look forward to collaborating with colleagues firm-wide and growing the practice group in Utah.”
His addition advances Buchalter’s broader strategy to build depth in key markets like Utah, which continues to attract business investment and legal talent.
“Jeremy’s expertise further strengthens our team as we continue to grow in this market,” said Jed Burton, Managing Shareholder of the Salt Lake City office. “His litigation background and deep understanding of employment and regulatory matters complement our existing strengths in Salt Lake, allowing us to provide even more comprehensive legal services to our clients.”
With Buchalter’s continued growth in Utah – and Adamson now as the Salt Lake City Chair of the Labor & Employment practice – the firm is well positioned to support the region’s business community as it navigates today’s complex legal landscape.
