Exceptional Personal Family Lawyer

Ms. Mendoza is an expectional personal family lawyer who went the extra mile to ensure the needs, responsibilities and options of the family were fully understood in a time of crisis. On the advice of a close family friend, my late aunt and I contacted Amie Mendoza regarding the drafting of m...y aunt's will. Ms. Mendoza did an expecptional job in an extremely short period of time. Unfortunately my aunt unexpectedly passed away four days prior to the scheduled signing of the will. As my aunt's children were unfamilar with the probate process, Ms. Mendoza was selected as the probate attorney and I served as the Personal Representative of the estate. Ms. Mendoza expertly guided us through Arizona's complictaed informal probate process and ensured that both I and the estate beneficaries fully complied with all state and federal legal and financial reqirements. Without Amie's advice prior and after the death of my aunt, the estate beneficaries would probably have been forced to sell my aunt's home of more than 40 years. Thank you Amie for your sound advice and personal friendship.

Fantastic experience!

We used Amie Mendoza’s law practice for our recent estate planning and as statutory agent for my LLC. Both my husband and I have never experienced a more pleasant, informative, trusting, and enjoyable experience in dealing with legal matters, than we had experienced at the Law Offices of Amie Mendoz...a! From the time we entered the offices at initial meeting, through follow-up at the end of the process; Amie made us feel welcome, took the time necessary to review our case with us in detail, and answered all of our questions no matter how small. I would definitely recommend the Law Offices of Amie Mendoza to anyone looking for estate planning!

Excellent Experience

I hired Amie to write write up my will. She not only wrote up my will, but went over and above what I asked making sure there were no loop holes. She spent a lot of time explaining, and helping me through the process. There was a lot I didn't know about making a will. Amie took care of all of the pap...er work, and really took the burden off of me. I was really nervous about all of it, but everything was taken care of painlessly. I am very satisfied with the service the was provided.

Really great experience

Amie Mendoza reviewed my legal issues - a judgment against us that was more than 4 years old and which we knew nothing about. Needless to say the interest and legal fees were accumulating at a very fast rate. When Ms. Mendoza took the case, she made it more understandable and ultimately more palatabl...e. She is very professional in her approach. She did a thorough analysis of my case and gave me options. Then she worked on the options we agreed on in very timely fashion, all at a very reasonable cost. My wife and I are very pleased with the outcome and felt that we were lucky to have been referred to Ms. Mendoza. She is very personable and very easy to work with. She is also a terrific lawyer.

Highly Recommended!

I worked with Amie for estate planning to set up my will, power of attorney, and other estate documents. While never an ideal topic of conversation, in my case, it's something that puts me at ease to make sure my loved ones are protected and that things will be taken care of if necessary. As so...mething I know little about, Amie was wonderful in guiding me through the process. She took the time to understand what my concerns were, drafted everything, and explained all of the legal terminology, so I now feel confident that those I care about will be taken care of should anything happen. I highly recommend Amie. She's personable, trustworthy, and has her clients' best interest at heart.

"Amie and I both attended law school as evening students after having had a career for several years. Amie has always made it a point to put people first. Her law firm, which she founded over two years ago, is no different. She is a seasoned professional with a background of over 12 years as a leader in the technology field. During her tenure as a technologist, Amie was able to successfully negotiate numerous multi-million dollar contracts.
