At my firm, I personally represent clients through the greater Phoenix and Scottsdale area of Arizona for all family law cases, including divorce, child support and custody, and marital property division. I also offer my clients experienced legal support for civil and business matters, including personal or business bankruptcy, employment law, and contract issues. Obtaining the best representation requires a broad spectrum of legal knowledge and a sharp focus on solving your particular legal problem.

My clients receive the utmost attention and compassion when they arrive seeking legal advice. Together, we discuss and construct a comprehensive legal strategy that addresses both the needs of the client and the best legal options available in each case. Divorce and family law often involves highly emotional issues that can cloud the judgment needed to obtain the best possible result. As your attorney, my job is to see through the fog of emotion and provide you an objective, clear analysis of your legal situation. Whether you're dealing with divorce, child custody or guardianship you can count on me to diligently work toward effectively reaching the goals of your case.

As a resident of the Valley of the Sun for over 25 years, I have a deep commitment to keeping the community strong. I do this by providing all of my clients with a highly personal legal service. While large law firms provide a wide array of resources, clients often find that a small law firm allows them an opportunity to communicate directly with the attorney involved in their case whenever needed. I realize the importance of clear and open communication and stay connected with my clients through phone or e-mail. With offices conveniently located in both Phoenix and Scottsdale, I can offer clients throughout the area easy access to in-office visits throughout the business week.

The Daly Firm is available to assist clients draft their prenuptial agreements.

- Paternity

A paternity action can be brought by either a man or a woman to legally establish the rights and responsibilities of the child’s father. It is important that paternity of children is established early on to avoid confusion years later. Some fathers have had to pay back child support because they did not know about a biological child. On the other hand some fathers have paid child support for children that are not biologically their own for years. Talk to a lawyer at the Daly Law Firm if there is a question of paternity so that the matter can be resolved.
