Below is a list of companies and organizations authorized to operate in the Utah legal regulatory sandbox (“the Sandbox”) along with their authorization orders from the Utah Supreme Court (click on the name to view).  Also included is a list of companies with partial Rule 5.4 waivers.

Please note that the sunset date for the Sandbox is August 14, 2027.

The Sandbox was launched by the Utah Supreme Court in 2020 and is a seven-year regulatory pilot project and experiment to increase access to legal services in Utah.  The authorization orders contain information on the areas of law a company or organization can practice in as well as the type of provider.  Types of providers authorized in the Sandbox include community justice advocates, other non-lawyer providers, and technology-based services such as AI.  Companies and organizations may also have non-lawyer ownership and/or engage in fee-sharing with nonlawyers.  These authorization orders are limited to legal services in Utah.

Operations for the Sandbox are currently housed in the Utah State Bar.
