Disbarred

William Tattnall Rush, disappeared during proceedings and did not return phone calls and money that I had paid. I filed a report with the AZ State Bar and was awarded a judgement of $7100 and Mr Rush was disbarred. I still in the process of trying to collect these funds.

Severely Disappointing

Ended up having to make a complaint to the Bar when he stopped responding to my calls and emails. I wasn't alone as my cousin had retained him for her own divorce as well.

Honest, Hardworking Attorney

I have known and worked with Tattnall for years. As fellow attorney I can vouch for his outstanding work ethic, his fierce representation of his clients, and his vigor for their defense. Tattnall is outstanding at his job. It has always been a pleasure working with him.
