David W Degnan

Was pretty unimpressed with my experience here. The lawyer, Mr. Degnan, seemed very unprepared for our meeting which was a 300 dollar hour long consult and I felt the whole time he was just trying to rush me out. I could quickly tell he hadn't read the documentation or lease I had sent him based on... a couple questions I asked early in the meeting. He barely seemed to know much at all, accurately, of my current situation. His solution to my situation was for him to quickly write up some draft of a letter he said I should send the business I was having an issue with and just kind of left that as the answer "here I wrote up what you should say just send them a letter like this." No talk of what could happen after that, how I should follow up based on how the business replies to that letter, what the consequences of the letter could be, nothing really. Just here real quick send a letter like this to them, that's what you should do - followed by like a facial expression of hope that I would just be satisfied with that and leave. Which, eventually, I did since he seemed so disinterested in the whole thing. He also had to get up literally 5 or 6 times to print out general laws that apply to the situation I was in since, as I said, he was unprepared. So, 300 dollars for 30 minutes of a lawyer that seemed ready for me to be out the door the second I came in. It was clear he didn't see my case as something he would want to take on, which is completely fine with me. But at least be prepared and give me the time I'm paying for. Put some actual effort into the person who is paying for your time. I would give 1 star, but I'm giving 2 because he was at least open to me emailing him follow-up questions after the meeting which I thought was cool.

It was a privilege to have Mr. Degnan and his law firm represented us in a recent real estate matter. He is open, communicates well, makes sure his clients understand exactly what is occurring, professional yet friendly, expeditious, fair in his fees, compassionate and provides advice that is guided... by the law and his legal experience. His staff were extremely helpful at a moments notice. I would highly recommend his services!

David Degnan shows ethical, scholarly, thoughtful representation with phenomenal ability to listen to client; extrapolate appropriate Arizona State Laws; merge relevant Arizona Real Estate Statues into a client's case as well as proactively communicate same with the opposition to position client for ...best possible outcome.

We were faced with losing our home to a partition suit served to us by my wife's ex-boyfriend. David is expensive but I wanted a real estate lawyer that was highly rated. David went all out for us and kept us updated at every stage of the process. We ended up settling without paying a cent to the opp...osing party. David communicated with us promptly and frequently, and made sure we felt comfortable asking any questions we had. PERSONALLY! He is very reasonable with his billing and knows his field of practice well. We will certainly use him again, and again, if needed. Great guy, and has great values. If you feel you were wronged and believe you are in the right, get this man to work for you! There are all sorts of evil in the world and it was nice to have representation with TEETH on our side.
