Aaron T Blase
About Aaron
Biography
Aaron T. Blase is a Board-Certified Family Law Specialist with the State Bar of Arizona, has been practicing law for 30+ years, and has earned a reputation for providing diligent, honest and dedicated legal services to those living in Scottsdale, Phoenix, and surrounding Maricopa County. He dedicates his practice solely to the area of family law. Divorce and legal separation, legal decision-making and parenting issues, complex asset division, spousal maintenance, and paternity are a few of the areas he covers in his practice. Aaron is trained in collaborative divorce, and mediation. Aaron has been recognized by his peers for his outstanding work and commitment to the spirit of the legal profession. That respect has resulted in his receiving an "AV Preeminent" peer review rating through Martindale-Hubbell, being selected as a Southwest SuperLawyer, and receiving a 10.0 "Superb" review rating through AVVO. His knowledge of the law, professional work ethic, and caring attitude for his clients allows him to stand out among other attorneys in the field. Aaron is an active member of the Family Law section of the State Bar of Arizona, the Maricopa County Bar Association, the Scottsdale Bar Association, and the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts.
Before becoming a Certified Specialist in Family Law, Aaron served as Senior Assistant County Counselor for the Sedgwick County, Kansas Counselor's Office where he provided legal advice and representation to elected and appointed officials, defending the County's interests, and prosecuting violations of all County resolutions in the County Court. Prior to that, Aaron maintained a general law practice with his father in Wichita, Kansas.
When he isn't practicing law and spending time with his family, Aaron loves to participate in sports. He was on the All-City soccer team in high school, was a 4-year letterman on the varsity soccer team in college (including All-Conference and All-District recognition), and spent many years volunteering as a youth soccer coach. He also loves pickleball, racquetball, skiing, and hiking - especially in Colorado, where he loves to go during the summer.
You won't find anyone better prepared for court hearings, and one of the special skills he brings to the table as a family lawyer is exceptional writing ability. Aaron won two Top Paper awards while in law school -- the best in his class.
Aaron grew up in Kansas and graduated from Friends University in Wichita, where he was a 4-year President's Scholar. He received his degree in Business Administration and History. Aaron earned his J.D. degree from Washburn University School of Law in Topeka. He then went on to get his LL.M. in Taxation from the University of Denver School of Law. Aaron is admitted to practice in three states -- Arizona, Colorado, and Kansas.

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...

Light at the end of the tunnel!

We Wouldn't Have Made It Without Aaron
I had a tough case, Aaron told me that from our first meeting. He told me It was going to be an uphill battle and there was a chance that we wouldn't win. It's like that in most relocation cases but even more so when you are relocating out of the country. Aaron and his team gave us superior legal...
