Joan Bundy, owner/attorney-at-law of Joan Bundy Law, became passionate about divorce and family law while serving as a prosecutor. Most of her case load involved domestic-violence matters. She spoke firsthand with domestic-violence victims, heard their stories, and helped bring them justice. She saw how the legal system can be a positive force to help families escape abusive and sometimes life-threatening situations, and move on with their lives.. As a prosecutor, Joan learned another important lesson: The justice system’s adversarial nature can sometimes stand in the way, not help bring about, a positive outcome in family law cases. When she opened her own family-law practice in Chandler, which she saw as a natural outgrowth of her previous experience, she saw many of the same patterns. Too many divorce and family law cases are characterized by needless conflict between the two parties and their attorneys. The result is a lengthy, expensive, heart-wrenching process that leaves lasting scars, particularly when children are involved. Only the attorneys stand to gain from high-conflict litigation.. Joan’s job is to advocate for the best interests of her divorce and family law clients. She does not hesitate to assertively advocate for them if the situation requires it. If the other party or opposing counsel are uncooperative, there is no other choice. Still, she believes that cooperation is the preferred approach because it often brings faster, more efficient, happier, and longer-lasting outcomes that benefit both her clients and their families. In fact, she has extensive training and experience in alternative dispute resolution, including mediation and arbitration.. Joan reviews each client’s legal matter individually and recommends the approach that she believes, through years of experience in family law, will work best. If the parties are willing to work together to resolve their issues, she may recommend mediation or another form of alternative dispute resolution instead of going to court.. As a divorce and family law attorney, Joan’s goals are to:. Joan grew up in a small Iowa town, which she credits for her traditional values and strong work ethic. She has lived in Arizona since 2000. Before entering the legal field, she sharpened her communication skills as a journalist and public relations professional.. The proud “parent” of many cats and dogs past and current, Joan considers companion animals to be part of the family and is a recognized national expert on animal law issues. She is a past chairperson and current member of the Executive Council of the State Bar of Arizona’s Animal Law Section and, for many years, has been a board member of, volunteer for, and financial contributor to many animal welfare organizations.. She also is an ally to the LGBTQIA+ population and has provided estate planning, co-parenting, dissolution and adoption services to many same-sex individuals and couples over the years. She is a recognized local expert in LGBTQIA+ family law issues.

I transitioned to divorce and family law after 15+ years working in accounting and operations for start-up technology companies. I strongly believe lawyers overlook the client experience and often force clients to work their way instead of the best way for the client. I try to look at everything from the client's perspective and try to make things as easy as possible for them.. I am a firm believer that the best way to resolve disputes is through direct communication with the other party. The court system should be the last resort, and I have no problem advising clients that they are better off handling an issue themselves if practical. I view the client relationship as a long-term collaboration rather than a quick money grab. I would much rather a client be completely confident in recommending our firm to a friend or come back years later when they do actually need a lawyer than feel taken advantage of.. I specialize in divorces with financial issues, whether high-income or net worth, family-owned businesses, real estate, retirement assets, or stock options and other equity compensation. All divorces have a range of issues though, so I am certainly not limited to financial cases by any means.. I understand that there is a lot at stake in every family law case, and every case is unique. I consider myself fortunate to be able to work with clients from all walks of life, and I love doing what I do because I know two days will never be the same.

I believe that clients should be treated with respect.  To me this means responding to clients as quickly as possible, caring about what a client needs or wants, and giving my best effort at all times.
