But I was lucky that my friend recommended Gillespie, Shields & Taylor Law Firm for my family law case that had been ongoing for almost 1.5 years at the time, and I will be forever grateful. I had initially tried to represent myself but the other party made it impossible to make any progress. Luckily I found DeeAn Gillespie. She was sharp, caring and compassionate since our initial consultation and I hired her on the spot. The extensive experience of DeeAn and her team was evident throughout the process. DeeAn's expertise in family law, combined with her compassion and strategic approach, provided me with confidence and peace of mind. Paralegal Deborah was also instrumental, ensuring all aspects of my case were handled efficiently and professionally. I worked closely with Deb and it was evident that she was committed and invested in quality work to get the best possible outcome for me. I also interacted with Paralegal Perla during the first week, and the day of the scheduled trial. The entire team worked diligently to achieve a favorable result, and I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking knowledgeable and caring legal assistance.

When we contacted Mark Atchley ESQ to get much needed advice and direction, we felt a genuine concern for our predicament. Mark assured us that he would make this process a smooth and non-stressful process. We never had any doubt nor any thoughts of any snags or difficulties during the whole ordeal, although if there were any difficulties, we are 100% certain that Mark would not only handle the issues(s), but handle them where my wife and I would not experience any dread or stress.

My credit score jumped from 400 to 695 and now I'm behind the wheel of a brand new car and just bought a 4 bedroom 2 bathroom house. I took the course Mark provided called 720 Credit and while it was difficult I learned from it and put into play the lessons and advice and now possess 16 credit cards all current and set up on auto pay to ensure timely payments. Now I hope to open a business in 2023 and none of this would have been possible without the Atchley Law Firm. Thanks Mark

Upon retaining an attorney, one would expect attention to detail regarding specific documents that…read morewill be filed to obtain a favorable outcome. This was not the case with my experience with Steve Sufrin. Dissolution of Marriage documents were drawn up, reviewed as the proper documents, and filed by Mr. Sufrin, eventually resulting in a virtual Default Hearing with the Judge. It was discovered that after the Hearing which granted dissolution, the wrong papers were filed with the court. This resulted in my having to request the court to nullify that ruling, refile, and reschedule yet another hearing using the CORRECT documents outlining the terms that they were originally supposed to reflect. Mr. Sufrin assured me that he will make this mistake right and alluded that the court clerk had made the mistake with the improper filing. ?? In the meantime, I arranged the terms of the divorce to be favorable to all parties but was told by Mr. Sufrin that he doesn't get out of bed for less than his hourly rate and would be charged for his representation a second time. Hardly, his making it right. I will add that I pointed out several of Mr. Sufrin's errors while he was preparing documents. He joked that it was the software and the use of electronic filing. All in all, it cost me nearly one year of my life as well as an additional amount of money for his neglect/mistakes. At this point, I am grateful to be divorced and finally being able to move on with my life, but I would entertain a comparison with this attorney to Saul Goodman.

I consulted several lawyers regarding my case, and most of them couldn't take it. My friend introduced me to Steven. Only Steven was willing to take my case and wasn't deterred by the ongoing divorce proceedings in my home country. With a firm heart, I trusted that he would help me, especially given my limited financial resources. In August 2024, he filed for divorce in Phoenix. Steven always said, "Let's wait for the decision from there and be patient." Thank God, in October 2024, I won the case in my home country, and Steven immediately resumed the divorce proceedings that had been pending in Phoenix. Finally, in September 2025, we were officially divorced in Phoenix. Steven has a lot of experience; he is firm and serious, but sometimes he likes to joke. Thank you, Steven, for helping me so much with my very unique case, which he said was the first of its kind he had handled. I have no doubt about Steven's work; he is very busy with several clients, but he will never forget you. Maintaining communication and honesty are crucial for achieving success. Keep up the good work, Steven! I will recommend Steven to anyone who truly needs a lawyer, especially for problems that other lawyers can't handle.

strongly do not recommend Craig J. Simon or Simon Law Group to anyone seeking ethical and honest…read morelegal representation. My experience with Mr. Simon has been incredibly disappointing, as he has repeatedly demonstrated dishonesty, a lack of integrity, and a clear disregard for fair legal proceedings. 1 Misleading Statements & False Claims in Court Mr. Simon misrepresented facts in front of the judge, including falsely claiming that he provided required disclosure documents--when in reality, they were never sent or received. Instead of ensuring a fair and transparent process, he manipulated the court's understanding of the facts to benefit his client. 2 Failure to Follow Through on Verbal Agreements Throughout my case, Mr. Simon made multiple verbal agreements but failed to honor them, proving himself to be unreliable and untrustworthy. Instead of working toward resolutions, he deliberately prolonged disputes to drive up attorney fees--putting financial gain over ethical representation and the best interests of the children involved. 3 Profiting from Conflict Instead of Resolving Cases Rather than focusing on settlement and resolution, Mr. Simon seems intent on extending litigation unnecessarily, which only inflates legal fees and prolongs emotional distress for all parties. Instead of advocating for reasonable and fair solutions, he thrives on unnecessary legal battles that serve no one but his own firm's financial interests. Bottom Line: If you are looking for an ethical, professional, and fair attorney, I highly recommend seeking legal counsel elsewhere. In my experience, Mr. Simon prioritizes tactics over truth, money over morality, and conflict over resolution. I hope others do their research before hiring Simon Law Group

I hired Richard Elley for a landlord-tenant dispute involving a security deposit with an ex-tenant…read more Initially, he advised that certain damages including unauthorized pet-related damage, unpaid rent of 3 days, house returned in a dirty state with oil dripping from the oven and structural modifications to the house could be charged against the deposit, and that we did not need to return the full amount. He said we have a no-brainer justification to retain the security deposit, however, once the tenant responded with a strong and threatening letter, the approach changed significantly. Instead of guiding us through a clear strategy, the communication became reactive and somewhat discouraging. During a phone call, he expressed frustration about the direction of the case and questioned decisions that had previously been discussed, such as raising certain damages. What concerned me most was the lack of consistent advocacy. The tenant appeared to self-advocate more effectively than our legal representation. There was little meaningful negotiation achieved on our behalf, and the matter ultimately resulted in us returning the full $2,500 security deposit, despite initially being advised otherwise. We paid $1,500 in legal fees but saw no value in terms of negotiation or outcome. While Attorney Richard Elley seems knowledgeable about landlord-tenant law, the level of advocacy fell short of expectations, and the tenant appeared to advocate their position more effectively than our legal representation.

When faced with a potential real estate transaction legal issue, I was left high and dry by my…read morerealtor and forced to find answers on my own - on a Friday afternoon. I called several law offices in the Phoenix area who offered real estate expertise but most of them were a week out or just plain not available. I was starting to think I was going to be dealing with this issue on my own and with no real legal guidance. It was then that I happened upon the Elley Law website and decided to give them a call. Imagine my surprise when the man himself answered and listened to my situation - occasionally asking questions to clarify but always listening. After it was all said and done, he advised me that at this stage I didn't really need legal representation and that I could handle the issue much more easily on my own - avoiding court and legal issues altogether. Turns out he was exactly right about what he suggested and the situation has now been resolved. He didn't try to coerce me into hiring him or paying for things I didn't need, he didn't try to steer me towards the easiest path for him to get off the phone - he listened and gave me real, honest advice. I should also mention he did this without asking for a single penny in compensation and on a late Friday afternoon. I hope that I never need legal representation in the future but when\if I do - Elley Law will be my first call, don't hesitate for them to be yours as well!
