Born in Ogden, Utah, Mr. Stanger is fluent in German. He joined Callister Nebeker & McCullough as an associate in 2004, and serves on the firm's recruiting committee. After graduating from law school, Mr. Stanger practiced management-side labor and employment law at the prestigious labor and employment boutique of Kamer Zucker & Abbott. Practice in the busy litigation section of Callister Nebeker & McCullough has allowed Mr. Stanger to continue his emphasis in employment law, but also provided the opportunity to work on significant cases covering a broad spectrum of legal fields, including construction, intellectual property, criminal law, products liability, etc. As a result, Mr. Stanger has significant trial experience, and has also represented clients in a number of arbitrations and mediations. |
