Ryan has always had a passion for the criminal justice system. He was unfortunately too bright, diligent, and level headed to continue his work with the County and I am glad to see that he is taking his vast Prosecutorial experience and helping people extricate themselves from the criminal justice system. He treats his clients like family and is diligent to get them out of trouble.

I have worked with Ryan on some cases and founded him to be an excellent advocate, relentless litigator and great communicator. He is well respected (feared) by the "other side". He is wonderful in responding to inquiries and developing an action plan for any criminal case in Arizona. I send all my clients who are in Arizona to him!
