My favorite part of being a lawyer is hands down the connections I’m able to form with my clients. I’ve always been a people person, and I love the personal aspect of advocating on behalf of someone. I’ve been fortunate enough to attend a top law school and work in a variety of law firms and offices, representing everyone from everyday Arizona locals to large, multinational corporations. I’ve represented insurance companies and gained invaluable insight into how they operate and evaluate cases. Though I’m thankful for the experience, I much prefer representing the underdog.. My approach to cases is to, in a sense, work backwards. I work in collaboration with my clients to come up with the ideal result and then figure out the most straightforward route to get there. From there, my job is to execute on that strategy without cutting corners, while always keeping the lines of communication open.. Outside of work, I’m constantly challenging myself with new hobbies. On any given day you can find me golfing with friends, working on my Brazilian jiu-jitsu, cooking, or playing my guitar.

I help small business owners with their business adventures. We work as a team on everything from formation to liquidity.

I also love to visit new restaurants and other businesses in the area. During my free time, I spend a lot of time with my beautiful puppy and wonderful family.

I began my career as an inspired entrepreneur with a big idea. Starting a company isn’t easy, but I was surprised at how difficult it was to work with an attorney. I saw this as an opportunity and pivoted to pursue a career as a legal professional. After graduating from a top law school and working at respected Arizona firms, I co-founded Glide Legal. I’ve focused my career on providing legal counsel to entrepreneurs and businesses of all sizes, from national corporations to local Arizona start-ups and family run businesses.. My approach is simple, to help you navigate your legal issues without standing in the way of business and innovation. Every business can benefit from having trusted legal counsel in their corner, and Glide Legal was built to be just that.. I enjoy the challenge of mastering a new craft. Beyond the practice of law, my obsessions include golfing, backpacking and exploring new places with my wife, and playing guitar/songwriting.

I am passionate about helping clients achieve their goals.. I have over 20 years of experience in law and business. My practice focuses on two areas: (1) helping injured people seek justice, and (2) business/real estate transactions. I have personal experience in both areas -- my first plaintiffs' personal injury case was my own, and I've owned several businesses.  Having a broad range of experiences and skills helps me better understand client needs, as well as to find and obtain creative, common sense, pragmatic and successful solutions to client problems.. I see myself as a holistic lawyer. What I mean is that your legal situation is usually only one part of the puzzle, and there can be other things you have to consider. When looking for the best outcome, you can’t pretend the other pieces of the puzzle don’t exist.. In my "free time", I enjoy yoga, meditation, bicycling, tennis, scuba diving, travel and playing the piano.

I am licensed to practice by the United States Supreme Court, the Supreme Court of the State of Arizona, and the Federal District Court of Arizona.  Mypractice focuses in assisting businesses, forward thinking entrepreneurs, and industry leaders in overcoming their legal obstacles.  I assist myclients in a myriad of commercial issues in a vast spectrum of industries.  Specifically, I have significant experience in corporate transactions, corporate formation, regulatory compliance, real estate, and intellectual property protection.  In addition to mytransaction practice, I have significant litigation experience in state and federal court as well as appearing in front of regulatory boards and committees.. More importantly, I believe in bettering our society.  I have spent mytime as an adjunct professors at law, publishing articles in legal journals, educating youth on our legal system, participating in charity fundraising campaigns, coaching, and sitting on tax exempt charitable boards and foundations.

I am a passionate and driven advocate for all of my clients. I have over six years of experience practicing law. Much of that time was spent developing my knowledge of labor and employment law matters. I have handled cases ranging from unpaid overtime to discrimination in the workplace to professional licensing discipline to breach of contract. My experience includes consulting with clients and small businesses, drafting and executing contracts, litigating complex civil matters, deposing witnesses and experts, appearing on behalf of clients at administrative hearings, and avocating at civil jury trial.. My clients know that I am attentive, energetic, willing to take measured risks, and willing to be aggressive. I will work efficiently and strategically to be your voice in the court system. My goal is to fight for my clients, give them their opportunity to be heard at trial by their peers, and strive to hold bad actors accountable.. While my experience has tended to focus on individuals and their claims, I have also spent dozens of hours working with small businesses to protect them from liability for discrimination and retaliation claims and claims brought under the National Labor Relations Act. If you are a small business owner requiring affordable and effective legal advice for handling employee complaints, feel free to contact me. I will work hard to ensure both from an employer and employee standpoint that communication is encouraged, that employers are respected, and that employees are content with their situations.

Graduated from Scottsdale Coronado High School , May 1966.. Admitted to Arizona State University September, 1966.  Political Science Major-pre law.  Obtained Bachelor of Arts Degree from Arizona State University in May, 1970.. June, 1970 Enlisted in Arizona Air National Guard, 161st Air Refuling Group, materials facilities specialist.. August 1970 Admitted to Arizona State University College of Law (now called Sandra Day O'Connor School of Law). Clerkship with Debus, Busy and Greene-1972. Internship with Arizona Attorney General's Office, Criminal Appeals Division. Internship with Hon. Paul LaPrade, Maricopa County Superior court Judge. 1973. Received Juris Doctorate Degree from ASU in September, 1973. Admitted to practice of law September, 1973. Assistant Phoenix City Prosecutor 1973-1977. Deputy Maricopa County Attorney 1977-81. Private practice 1981-present.. About to start my 43rd year of practicing law.  Early in my career I was a government prosecutor, going into court every day on behalf of the State of Arizona against various types of misdemeamor defendants.  After a few years there, I was hired by the Maricopa County Attnorney's office to prosecute felony cases.  I did that for about three years before entering private practice.  The time I spent as a prosecutor was invaluable.  I learned all about judges, juries, and having to prove your case beyond a reasonable doubt.  I was very fortunate in those days to work with some of the best trial lawyers and judges in Arizona.  I was lead counsel in about 100 or so jury trials.  I even got to appear in front of Hon. Sandra Day O'Connor when she was a trial judge in Maricopa County Superior Court.  You could tell even then that she was destined for higher calling.  For those of us who were fortunate enough to have known her at that level, it was no surprise that she was selected by Pres. Ronald Reagan to be the first woman on the US Supreme Court.. When I first entered private practice, I handled mostly Domestic Relations cases-divorce, child custody, etc.  I also represented criminal defendants, misdemeanor, felony, DUI, etc.  In addition I had my first experiences representing people who had been injured, or families who lost a loved one, due to the negligence of others.(commonly referred to as Personal Injury and Wrongful Death). Because I had been involved in so many prosecutions that focused on the harm done to the victim(s) of crime, it was an easy transition to representing the people and families who had been harmed by the negligence of others.  So it seems like my entire career, in one form or another, I have tried to help balance the scales of justice on behalf of people harmed by a wrongdoer.  In the past 20 years I have focused on personal injury, wrongful death and criminal defense, including many DUI's and traffic-related cases.  I believe that being on both sides of these cases, as attorney for the victim  and the accused, is of mutual benefit to my clients.  Knowing how the "other side" works helps me on either side.. Although I worked initially in private practice with a group of four  other lawyers, since 1983 I have been a sole practicioner, incorporating officially into William S. Chick, PC in 1984.  I have maintained that business profile ever since.. I have practiced all over the State of Arizona, but primariliy in Maricopa County. As far as my personal approach to the practice of law, I always try to remember the sage advice of my grandfather who told me: "if you take care of your flock, your flock will  take care of you".  I try to treat every case, big or small, in a way that will exempify the best in the legal profession.  I do my best to give each and every client a dedicated, diligent, and thoroughly professional representation.  I have been blessed with excellent paralegals and support staff over the years and look forward to many more opportunites to be of service to my clients.  .
