About
A broad legal background, focused on family law
AJ earned his Juris Doctor from Arizona Summit Law School, where he served as a Team Leader on Law Review. He holds a Bachelor of Arts from Gonzaga University, with a double major in History and Political Science and a minor in Religious Studies.
What distinguishes AJ is the breadth of legal experience he draws on every day. His background spans multiple practice areas, giving him a perspective that pays real dividends in family law, where cases routinely touch on property and business interests, contracts, tax considerations, estate planning, and complex financial arrangements. Clients benefit from an attorney who recognizes these issues early and addresses them thoughtfully, rather than treating family law in isolation.
