John Torgenson is dedicated to representing individuals who have been harmed. He hails from St. George, Utah, where his upbringing instilled in him a strong work ethic and a sense of accountability. He was taught to stand up for himself and for others facing adversity. John completed his undergraduate studies at the University of Utah in 2001 before pursuing his passion for law at Notre Dame Law School, where he graduated with honors in 2004.
John is licensed to practice law in Arizona, the United States Federal District Court of Arizona, and the 9th Federal Circuit Court of Appeals. Before founding Torgenson Law, he gained valuable experience working in the litigation group at Fennemore Craig, one of Arizona's oldest and largest law firms. John is appreciative of the opportunities and mentorship he received at Fennemore Craig, where he honed his legal skills.
His time at Fennemore Craig involved practicing in both defense and plaintiff's practice areas, providing him with a well-rounded perspective on the litigation process. This unique background enhances his credibility with various legal stakeholders, including defense lawyers, insurers, defendants, judges, and arbitrators.
John's legal career is devoted to advocating for individuals who have been harmed by insurance companies and corporate interests. He proudly embraces the label of a "personal injury lawyer" and seeks to redefine it. He envisions personal injury law as a means of helping vulnerable individuals rebuild their lives in the face of adversity, rather than a pursuit of profit at the expense of the injured. John stands up for real people against corporate interests and insurance companies, striving to secure justice for those in their darkest times.
