Needed Landlord advice and got it

We are a new landlord in the State of Arizona and wanted to have an attorney review the previous rental agreement we used for our California rental property. This attorney brought us up to speed with Arizona law and offered several great suggestions, recommendations, and resources. Learning about te...nant's rights and the new animal emotional support law was especially useful in the drafting of our new Arizona rental agreement. We are thankful to have found such a good attorney and of great value offering very sound advice. I would, without hesitation, recommend him.

An Outstanding Attorney for Any Legal Matter

Joseph is a kind, unassuming, humble man. A man of few words, but when spoken, powerful words. I am grateful to have had him represent us in a difficult eviction case on Mon. 10/9/17. That morning, Joe respectfully stood before the Judge, explained the issues, quoted the appropriate Statue to back... them up and to our surprise, the Judge disagreed. He clearly didn't get it. So, back and forth they went, over and over again. Words quietly spoken, but, without changing the tone of his voice, Joseph was unflappable. He did not back down. Finally, with a little gentle persuasion, the Judge got it. Clearly, Joseph was right. There had never been any doubt about that. The Judge ruled, we prevailed and it was over. But, outside the courtroom, there was no celebration, no high fives, or words of congratulations. Satisfied that he'd done his job, Joe quietly and with great dignity, took his leave. This is my definition of a truly great man. A gifted attorney with a brilliant mind and a gentle, beautiful soul. He is truly one in a million. I Highly Recommend Joseph Valenti for any legal matters. I will certainly hire him again!
