Four years into my personal family court case, involving young children and opposing party substance abuse dynamics, Mark Candioto has been by far the most honest, sincere and knowledgeable attorney I have encountered in the family court practice. Mark was able to successfully challenge and win my case against a local law firm that is known for bad/dirty law practices. Mark considered all aspects of my case, made recommendations for the future and followed through with everything he said he would do. Mark's legal team at Parker Schwartz parallels his work ethic in a friendly and affordable manor. Speaking from an unconventional side of the fence, I cannot thank Mark Candioto and his team enough, for saving my children's lives.
Respectfully,
A father with sole custody of two children

Mark was very thorough in explaining what to expect in this case. He stopped at our home 3-4 times during the litigation period and was always very personable and helpful answering questions, providing information, whether in person, phone or online. He provided all necessary paperwork and gave clear instructions about what had to be done on our part and his. We feel he did as much as he could to give us a fair settlement.

I hired the firm to represent me in a wrongful termination/discrimination suit. They did everything they needed to do in order for me to win. We came out ahead and I couldn't be happier. The fees, to me, were VERY reasonable considering they worked for me on a contingency basis. I would use them again if I needed too.

My wife and I consulted Matthew on the recommendation of a colleague to assist my family during a stressful and challenging personal time in our lives. We saw Matthew in consultation prior to engaging him, at which time he enabled us to simplify our thinking and put our problem in an understandable perspective. He was extremely caring and concerned about helping us with our problem and really listened to our fears by explaining the legal process that was totally foreign to us in a simple way that we could understand. He was most knowledgeable about getting the job done and kept us totally informed along the way. I would recommend him to friends in a similar situation.

I was in a terrible motorcycle accident in 2012 that resulted in permanent injuries. I found Scott Palumbo quite by accident in 2013 and was so glad that I did, as the original attorney I was with, lost his license to practice law! Right from the start, you could tell that you were dealing with a talented family man who is passionate about his work, and who has principals and integrity. I immediately knew that I was in capable, experienced hands, which instantly put my mind at ease after the experience I had with the prior attorney.
Over the last couple of years I have gotten to know Scott & all I can tell you is that he is an exceptional "one in a million" professional and is a man of substance. He is detailed, trustworthy, provides expert guidance, informative through out the entire process, gets results and most importantly puts your interests well ahead of his own. I will always be truly grateful to both Scott and his extremely competent Legal Assistant Susan and consider myself very blessed for having found him.

It was a privilege to have Scott Palumbo as my attorney.
I was involved in a motorcycle accident causing hospitalization and rehabilitation.
To find quality representation, I asked my mother to contact her friend who is the City Attorney of my hometown. She recommended that I contact Palumbo Wolfe & Palumbo.
To sum up my experience, everything went smoothly and I always knew what to expect. Scott took the time to answer my questions thoroughly and gave me a sense of ease. It was very easy to contact Scott when I needed something.
I find Scott's character honest, knowledgeable, and confident.
I am more than happy with the results.
I highly recommend Scott to represent cases involving motorcycle accidents.

Hopefully you will never need the services Palumbo Wolfe & Palumbo offer, but if you do you will not find better representation than Scott Palumbo and staff. He specializes in representing catastrophic and life changing injury cases. He is the Michael Jordan of Trial Attorneys, no joke. My case went 3 years and finally settled days prior to trial. During that time I watched Mr. Palumbo in front of the judge and was truly impressed at his ability to think 12 steps ahead of the defense. He is a family man with high standards and exceptional character. He is a straight shooter and will tell you how it is. He has great support staff that communicates very well and doesn't miss a thing.

Several years after erroneous felony charges against our son were dismissed, those charges began to show up on his background checks creating problems with employment and other opportunities. After some research, we were referred Mr. Ballacer to file a motion to have his records sealed. After carefully going over our case history to gather important details to justify our request, Dan's office filed the motion on his behalf. From the outset, Mr. Ballacer was honest that there were no guarantees that our motion would be granted. When a hearing was scheduled, as opposed to a flat denial of our motion, he assured us that this was our opportunity to justify our request. At the hearing, Dan's concise presentation of the supporting facts resulted in the judge granting our motion to exonerate hour son of the original charges and seal his arrest record. Thank you for all of your hard work!

When you want someone on your side, this is the Lawyer to have. He looks at your situation as his own and takes it on with the same passion that you would. This is not a generic television commercial lawyer. He actually cares about you as a person first and then client. He pursued my case relentlessly for almost ten years and won three times at the Court of Appeals. We prevailed in the end and I could not have done it without him!

I’ve known Van for some time, even before I chose him to represent me in an accident I had several years ago. Being a lawyer, I knew I had a choice of many local lawyers but I’m glad I chose Van’s firm. He did an excellent job. Both Van and his staff were attentive and responsive. They achieved an excellent result and I sent my daughter to his office in Tucson for capable representation when she was injured while attending college. Van has also handled legal matters for my father-in-law and sister-in-law. We’re all convinced that there’s no better choice of injury lawyer in this market.

I am a business owner, and Van has been handling all of my legal needs for 35 years. Although he is well known as a personal injury attorney, over the years he's done everything for us: wills, divorces, formed corporations, and has defended us in several personal property damage cases, none of which we have ever lost. His staff is excellent, and his experience, negotiation skills and advice have been beneficial to us and our business on many occasions. The best recommendation I could provide for Van: I trust the man. Period.

Not only is Sarah highly knowledgeable in Arizona divorce law, but she also demonstrated a compassionate and understanding approach, which made the emotional aspect of the process more bearable. She actively listened to my concerns and tailored the overall strategy to meet my specific needs.

David is a tremendously gifted litigator , that says it in a nut shell. He was extremely communicative through the whole process, which was six years. He took a situation that was originally set aside and argued his case to win us an appeal and allow us to seek justice. He was totally professional yet human when he needed to be. There were no surprises, what he said, he did. I would recommend David to anyone needing a litigator. He is certainly one of Phoenix's best.

As we stated in our May 2020 BATSON BULLETIN e-newsletter, it was time for our estate documents to be updated due to family changes and to be certain they were current with Arizona law. We are Realtors who specialize in Seniors (SRES designation/Seniors Real Estate Specialists) so finding Andrea Claus will help many people whose paths we cross.. Andrea came highly recommended; then we were privileged to hear her speak at Pioneer Title/Desert Ridge. She certainly has a handle on how important real estate is to your estate planning. She was delightful to work with in preparing our new documents and came up with so many excellent recommendations. We’re so pleased with Andrea and her staff (especially Jackie Chaney). The process was thorough and efficient and accomplished via telephone/email right up to the date we signed (masked, gloved with our own pens) in the parking lot outside of her office during COVID19. Flawless! We feel so relieved to know our Trust & other documents are in order and she’ll be there when the time comes…hopefully many years from now. Thank you Al and Jean Batson

Mr. Black has provided a variety of legal services to my family and me over the last several years. I initially contacted him for advice relating to certain of my business matters, but more sought his services regarding a personal injury accident in which my daughter was involved. She was struck by a negligent driver while she was riding her bike on a city sidewalk. She sustained multiple serious injuries and required extensive hospital treatment and medical follow-up. Her claim against the other driver’s insurance company was resolved much to our satisfaction. Mr. Black has continued to help me with other legal matters and when my inquiries are not in areas in which he regularly practices, he has been very helpful in helping me to connect with other top professionals.

I was the defendant in a real estate transaction where I was representing a Buyer as her Realtor. Three years after the cancellation of the transaction, I was sue'd personally for $2M for "interfering in the contract". Unfortunately, both of the Plaintiff's were Attorney's, so they could relentlessly persue me, at almost no cost to themselves. Given this situation, I was extremely lucky to have Patrick as my "hired gun". At every turn, Patrick was able to thwart their attacks. Before my 12 hour deposition, Patrick and I met and he prepped me so that I was prepared and confident for all of the leading questions that would come my way. While all this was going on, Patrick worked behind the scene's to get the case thrown out of court, and was ultimately successful in having my part dismissed! Patrick has saved me an untold amount of money and time, and for this I greatly appreciate him and his attention to detail. I highly recommend Patrick!

Benjamin assisted me with a company payout dispute where the company didn’t want to pay me the money I had rightfully earned. He wrote an extremely polished letter whereby he included examples of other cases demonstrating similar issues. This, combined with his knowledge of the law, influenced the company to pay me within a matter of days from receiving the letter. I have worked with several attorneys and have never seen a set of skills more impressive than those in which Benjamin possesses.

My case was dropped by my original counsel after they discovered there was a conflict of interest. A friend recommended Benjamin and I am glad i trusted their advice.

In my experience, it has been very tedious and daunting to begin a conversation with an attorney, especially one at a law firm with other partners, etc. That is, usually law firms won't lend an ear, it seems, unless you pay $100-300 initial consulting fee, which is basically a $15 overview of your case and whether they think it's worthwhile$$$.
However, not only was I surprised to see Attorney Rhatz offer a no-cost consultation, but he also kept it "real." He advised me with information that even seemed to work against his assumed interest in profit (i.e., he didn't try to exploit me for money), such as by providing me with self-help research suggestions, and even helped me put together an outline for my case.
He didn't want me to lose more money winning with him (he didn't want me to spend so much money to retain him, that even if winning the case, I'd still be at a net negative dollar-loss).
He gave me his undivided attention, asked questions that showed he actually paid attention, and was very resourceful with directing me towards credible sources of jurisprudence.
What's more, is that he didn't throw me out after 15 minutes, but rather stayed with me until he felt I was sufficiently informed with the material and answers to questions to send me along my way.
This man even read through all my notes and connected with me as a person.
I also appreciated his aggressive, but civil, nature towards vanquishing the countering party. He is strategic, he is prepared to preempt the countering party's legal arguments by first calling them out himself, and sparks reassurance that he is sedulously and astutely on the case.
Obviously, I would recommend attorney R Andrew Rahtz for the aforementioned reasons, despite only meeting with him one time on an preliminary consultation.

We started working with Andrew Rahtz 3 years ago as we had enlisted the help of Platt and Westby for a property issue we were having. We noticed from the beginning his willingness to listen, his attention to detail and his professional manner, which was very reassuring to us as this was our first encounter seeking legal assistance. During the many twists and turns of our case, Andrew was always prepared and represented us in a manner that we were proud of: intellectually informed and calm. He answered our many emails and phone calls in a timely manner, which was impressive knowing his other responsibilities were equally demanding of his time. This is an outstanding man that will do his best to seek a good result for your legal problems. We can recommend him to you with total confidence.

I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Nancy during the period 12/2013 through 8/2014. Nancy served as one of 3 City Attorneys for a local municipality in Central Arizona where I was on assignment at the time. In my role as then Interim Chief Information Officer for that municipality, I relied greatly on the City Attorney’s office to ensure our Information Technology (IT) related contracts with vendors provided the necessary legal protections to the City.
Nancy approached such matters with great detail and thoroughness. She proved to be very knowledgeable in various areas – including IT. Moreover, she was very effective at communicating legal positions to those of us who were not lawyers. She recognized that we required absolute clarity in the legal instruments that we were to undertake with the vendor community, and as such she served us well.
I was very pleased with the level of analysis and counsel offered by Nancy. Additionally, she was one of the most pleasant individuals that I have ever had the pleasure of working with - and I would greatly welcome the opportunity to work with her again in the future.

I am very happy I used Lerner and Rowe. My case took three years, but it was very well worth it. My attorney Mr. Howard and my call rep Gabby Fernandez made my three years go quickly. All questions were always answered with no delay. I always felt welcome.

After two and a half years, I ended up being very satisfied with my case. I met Glen Lerner 20 years ago when he would come into my restaurant in Vegas before going to his gym. He made me believe in his firm. Tom Howard and his team were awesome. I'm very happy.
