Connor Edlund

Connor Edlund joined the McConnell Wagner Sykes + Stacey PLLC team in Boise, Idaho, in 2021, bringing with him a profound passion and a rich background in construction. His journey in the field began long before his legal career, having been immersed in the construction industry from a young age. This early exposure has given him a holistic understanding of construction projects from inception to completion, which he now adeptly applies to his legal practice, particularly in resolving client issues that emerge during these phases. He focuses his practice on:

• Business law
• Commercial litigation
• Construction law
• Employment law
• Personal injury law
• Real estate law

Mr. Edlund’s academic foundation is equally robust. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in construction engineering management, complemented by a minor in business administration from Oregon State University. Here, he honed his skills across various roles, including field engineer, estimator and project manager. These positions involved overseeing intricate heavy civil projects across Idaho and the broader western United States, equipping him with invaluable hands-on experience.

At the University of Idaho College of Law, Mr. Edlund excelled academically, graduating magna cum laude in 2022. His academic focus was on business law and entrepreneurship, areas in which he demonstrated exceptional proficiency. While at law school, he was an active member of the Idaho Law Review and earned multiple CALI Excellence for the Future Awards. His commitment to the community was evident through his pro bono work with the Idaho Wildlife Federation, and he continued to engage with the construction industry by working with a general contractor during his studies.
