Lack of Responses

This review is on the lack of responses and work from Aaron Blasé. I met Aaron in May 2024 to go over my divorce case. In his review of the mountain of information I presented, he told me I have a case for the house, spousal support and legal fees. I signed a contract in May 2024, and gave him a $700...0 retainer. When his office requested information, I provided it within 48 hours. We went from the settlement hearing and through the discovery period. My ex provided no new information that I had not already given to Aaron in May 2024. Several months went by with no responses to my emails and the lack of information from Aaron. When Aaron told the court we wanted to go to mediation, that’s when I requested a face-to-face meeting with him to get answers to my emails and a plan moving forward. In December 2024, I met with Aaron only to learn that I no longer had a case on the house, support, or legal fees. Aaron said he checked with another attorney and that attorney said I didn’t have a case. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I had spent over $11,000 to find out what I could have known 7 months ago. I had no more money to spend so I had to settle to stop the bleeding. Please read other reviews that had the same experience.

Horrible attorney!! Steer Clear

One of the worst, non-caring, money, grubbing, horrible attorney, that I have ever encountered in my 10 years of dealing with attorneys. Thanks to him, I was encouraged to spend thousands of dollars to take a father with his substantiated abuse on his record back to court after he hit my daughter aga...in. Due to his lack of concern and ill to no preparation, I don’t think he did anything for the case at all I spent over $50,000 and I had 70% custody before. He missed all the deadlines for expert witnesses, and I had plenty of proof. All he wanted to do was take my money along with Greg Davis and could care less about the well-being of a six-year-old child who now lives in fear every day since dad now has 50% custody because of their all around, unprofessional, horrible, negligence. Because they miss deadlines I know I should make a bar complaint, and I very well may do that. Please if you love and want the best for your child stay away from this one!!

This is the guy you want in your corner

I’ve spent the better part of the last decade in and out of court for my family law case. My case was very complicated and extremely delicate. I’ve gone through several lawyers over the years and never have I ever had the experience I had with Aaron. He was recommended to me by a very close family me...mber who had hired him previously for his own custody case and was extremely satisfied with his experience. Throughout my entire lengthy process Aaron and his paralegal Laura were forthright and professional to the highest degree. I never felt a dime was wasted on trivial agenda like so many lawyers i had experienced before. Aaron and Laura helped me save my daughters childhood and I could not be more grateful for the extreme level of care they showed in working my very complicated case. I will always recommend Aaron to anyone and everyone that is ever in need of the very best representation you can possibly find. Honest, Genuine, and no BS . I could not have asked for more , these people gave us our lives back and I am forever grateful.

Cool, calm, collected and experienced

Aaron (and his paralegal, Laura) helped me navigate a very tough high-conflict divorce case that is probably in the outliers of family law. It spanned 5 years and involved numerous false allegations of abuse, a no-contact restraining order, supervised visitation, a court appointed advisor, a comprehe...nsive family evaluation, a therapeutic interventionist, safe haven therapists for the children, and relocation orders. Aaron helped me navigate these issues with skill and his "no nonsense" approach was incredibly helpful. Many times, the opposing counsel (of which there were numerous) would try "dirty tricks" to hamper our case, but Aaron never responded in-kind. During the trials, Aaron was not afraid to get aggressive when the situation warranted, and used his superior knowledge of case law to present compelling arguments. As a result, the judges working the case looked on our positions very favorably and I could not be happier with the results. Aaron and Laura were an amazing team and helped me keep focused and aware of possible outcomes while the wheels of justice slowly turned. They never seemed frustrated or annoyed by my many phone calls and questions, and were always very responsive to me. I would highly recommend Aaron and his team to anyone going through a high-conflict divorce.

The BEST Family Law Attorney!

As far as Aaron Blase goes for an Attorney, there is no other Attorney. I have had three other attorneys and nobody has come close in being able to handle my case. Aaron handled my personal situation and case with skill, expertise and extreme knowledge. I retain Aaron for Family Law and I ...keep him onboard due to my extenuating circumstances and have had him for years now. My ex and I have one child in common and my child was conceived out of rape but born out of love. My ex sued for custody and got it due to the lack of laws in Arizona protecting me in this regard with no conviction. I utilize Aaron as a buffer against my ex due to Protective Orders, being in the Arizona Address Confidentiality Program, different types of hearings, trials and even upholding my Order of Protection when my ex would try to fight it. I had my two older children on this Order of Protection against this ex that were not related but they needed protection from him. This all tied into my Family Court Case but in different branches so to speak. Aaron helped me in getting Emergency Orders in Family Court for Temporary Sole Legal Custody of my child due to the abuse and neglect from my ex. Eventually we were going to Trial. Aaron will tell you directly what the laws are and if it could stand behind you, but he also plays devils advocate to show you how it could play out. He will never give you false hope or any predictions. As I was told, he does not have a crystal ball. The preparation for Trial, both his paralegal Laura and Aaron are nothing short of amazing. He spent a lot of time preparing for my Trial. At Trial, Aaron hits all major points, nothing more and nothing less and of course it’s due to the time constraints of the Courts. Aaron didn’t need to call my ex a liar, but he simply did it by only presenting the evidence, testimony, paper trails and he did not leave any holes or any stone unturned. I was blown away in court on how Aaron pieced everything together and presented my case. Aaron was a rockstar in Court! Aaron went above and beyond not only representing me but my child too. In sense of the word “in best interest of the child” Aaron nailed it in my book. Aaron spoke up for a minor child who does not have a voice and this was solely based on the evidence. My words cannot express how brilliant Aaron truly is. A brilliant but humble man. Laura, I cannot say enough about her. She is sharp, efficient and her attention to detail is outstanding. A very caring lady and she is invested in you. She knows you, your story and I’ve cried and vented to her and she truly listens. She genuinely takes the time to hear you. After I hang up with her, I feel so much better and I’m able to continue about my day because I know they are handling it. My words and gratitude cannot express how grateful I am for Aaron Blase. I feel safe knowing he is my attorney and I told him he is my attorney forever. I laughed telling him “aren’t you lucky!”

"I have known Mr. Blase for approximately three years. During this time I have become acquainted with his work habits (which are stellar), his attention to detail and his overall approach to the practice of law. Mr. Blase is a very disciplined and careful attorney whose philosophy is always designed to put his clients in the best position possible often times when they are involved in the most trying of circumstances. Judges respect and appreciate Mr. Blase's professional and gentlemanly approach, which why he is an effective trial lawyer. Clients should always remember who their audience is - JUDGES! I therefore strongly recommend Aaron Blase to those who seek divorce or who seek modifications of orders already existing."
