"Ms. Quinterri presented a CLE at the State Bar to young lawyers on ethics and trust fund management. From this lesson, I found her to be exceptionally knowledgeable. I have also had the pleasure of networking with Ms. Quinterri at lawyer events and learned more about the services she provides to the legal community. If you are seeking to hire a passionate, skilled attorney, I would recommend Ms. Quinterri."

"I endorse this lawyer's work. Denise has been a Godsend for me and my lawyer discipline practice. She is a former Staff Bar Counsel, has a wonderful grasp of Arizona's procedural rules, and her written work is without equal. I have gotten to the point where I will not accept a disciplinary matter unless Denise can associate with me. I couldn't recommend her more highly."
