Top best Estate Lawyers in Scottsdale | 321 available

I focus my practice in the areas of estate planning (wills, trusts, special needs trusts, pet trusts, probate, trust administration, gifting, family business succession planning, and tax planning), transactional business representaion, and asset protection.  I also enjoy helping clients with pre- and post-marital agreements and co-habitation agreements.

I enjoy family time with my wife and two daughters.  I also enjoy playing golf, tennis, or basketball, and working out.

I believe in taking a personalized approach to each one of my cases.  I have learned there is not one form or template that will work in all situations.  To that end, listening to my client’s desired outcomes and then framing them within the facts of each particular case is critical.  I take a careful and thoughtful approach to all my client’s matters and would be happy to speak with you if you are in need of an Arizona divorce and family law attorney.

I am founding member of Leighton & Abdo, PLLC, and an Arizona native. My practice areas include bankruptcy,plaintiff's civil litigation and civil litigation defense, collections, collections defense (credit card, promissory note, breach of contract, etc.), debtor and creditor rights, and estate planning (including wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and real property deeds). I have presented cases before the Arizona Court of Appeals, the Arizona Supreme Court, the Federal Eight Circuit Court of Appeals, the Federal Bankruptcy Panel of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court of the United States of America.

I am an experienced attorney who brings big firm service to my clients.  I have also been a business owner, real estate developer and business management consultant.

I am a certified real estate specialist in Arizona and a partner at the Radix Law Firm in Scottsdale, Arizona. I am licensed in both Arizona and Nevada. I have been practicing law since 2000. My practice primarily focuses on real estate (transactions and litigation). But I work with and advise small to medium sized companies on all aspects of their businesses.. As lead counsel I have conducted numerous jury trials, bench trials, arbitrations and appeals. I have experience in all phases of civil litigation and trial. I have also represented clients before the Registrar of Contractors and the Department of Real Estate.. While in law school, I served as the Articles Editor for the Energy Law Journal. After law school, I worked for a well-established firm in Las Vegas, Nevada. I also spent some time working as in-house counsel for a real estate development company. Before joining the Frutkin Law Firm, I was  the Managing Partner of Buck Edmunds PLC, an Arizona law firm with a focus on real estate law and litigation.. When I am not working I love to fly fish and spend time with my wife and three kids.

I always put my client's first.  I treat their case as though it was my own case.

Hi! I am a second-generation estate planning attorney with over two decades of experience, and I have seen how even the best intentions can have negative results. Without considering estate planning, family members can be left in confusion, turmoil, or worse, after a loved one passes.. That is why my focus is on creating comprehensive estate plans that fulfill the wishes of professionals, business owners, and retirees to enable a transition that protects the remaining beneficiaries.. My vision is simple and powerful: provide every client with an exceptional legal planning experience. With a decade spent in the courtroom as a trial attorney, I understand how to help clients and their families protect against predatory lawsuits and stay out of court.. I have been featured in the media as an estate planning authority, including ABC News, NBC News, FOX News and Bloomberg Law.. When not at the office, I enjoy spending time with my wife, seven children and grandchildren. I love the outdoors and am an avid wilderness backpacker - I have even backpacked to the bottom (and back out!) of the Grand Canyon 14 times.
