I take on your case as though it were my case. I’ve been practicing a lot for 25 years primarily in the family law arena. Other areas have been civil litigation, juvenile law, and probate and estate. I’m primarily doing what I do for the best interest of the children. I have a five-year-old, so I’m very into the well-being and the best interest of the children. Clients can expect from me a compassionate, experienced and somewhat aggressive type representation. I represent you and your ideals and your request to the degree that I can under the ethical rules of the law. And gain what we’re able to gain in the process in your family law case.

My name is Greg Davis. I’m an attorney with Davis Limited in Scottsdale, Arizona. I’ve been practicing law for (22) twenty-two years and I’ve been practicing family law almost exclusively for most of that time. Clients often choose me, because I’m communicative, I’m responsive. Most complaints I hear about lawyers, “Lawyers never return phone calls… They don’t tell me when something happens”. I promise, when something happens you’ll be the second to know if I’m the first. Every one of my clients has my telephone number, my cell phone number. I’m available (24) twenty-four hours a day, (7) seven days a week, (365) three hundred sixty-five days a year, literally.
At Davis Limited, most of our cases are high conflict. We like the high conflict cases because we can do the most good there. When a court proceeding starts, the judge looks out at the courtroom and it looks at two attorneys, the petitioner and the respondent. I’ve known these judges for a long time. I’ve been working with them for a long time. I would hope that the judge is going to look to me to find, “What’s a reasonable solution”. The judge doesn’t want to decide things for your family. The judge wants you to decide things for your family. I can help you do that. We do fight for our clients like no one else. We do everything we can to avoid trials, but if you go to trial we fight like hell.
To me, being aggressive doesn’t mean disrespectful, it doesn’t mean being mean, it means chasing down every issue, chasing down every piece of evidence and fighting like hell for my clients. Most of our cases have substance abuse or domestic violence involved. It’s not rare. It’s quite common in the practice of family law because what we deal with every day are good people at the their very worst. If you want to work with an experienced, dedicated and reliable attorney who communicates with you and is with you throughout the entire process, call me, Greg Davis at Davis Limited, (602) 279-1900. The website is www.davislimited.com. I look forward to working with you.

Hello, I want to speak to you today about whether you may be eligible for spousal maintenance in Arizona. The court is going to look at a variety of factors to determine whether you are eligible for spousal maintenance, as well as the amount and duration of that spousal maintenance award.
Although there are many factors the court will look at, as a general overview, usually the more important factors include, the differences in the parties income, the amount of assets that each spouse will take from the marriage and the length of the marriage. Now there is certainly many more factors under the statute that the court will also consider, but in most cases those are the most important factors for the court to consider. If you any other questions regarding whether you are eligible for spousal maintenance in the state of Arizona, please feel free to contact me.
If you still have questions regarding whether or not you are eligible to receive alimony in Arizona, please contact a Scottsdale alimony lawyer.

Visitation significantly effects child support. For example, if two divorcing parties, a divorcing party agree that their going to be adult about recognizing that a child needs both parents and agree therefore to share visitation, custody of the kids, they will have a week on week off or they’ll have five-two-two weekly application of time and whatever they decide is going to really effect visitation. A 50-50 sharing of the time with the kids with a situation where two people make almost the same amount of money a month, will result in no child support.
If the father however has every other weekend with one day in the intervening week, one night in the intervening week, he’s gonna have substantial child support, particularly if he makes substantially more money, earns more than the mother does. So, it’s a complicated situation, one of the most difficult ones that parents have to make and we’re always there to help them if we can.

Alleged fathers very frequently deny paternity. They’re facing 18-years of child support, they’re ticked off at the mother, they’re splitting up and frequently they just don’t have anything to do with the mother or any part of her. But, it’s not something he can avoid.
The court will order him to be tested. DNA tests are just as routine as getting up in the morning for breakfast. The court will order it or the parties will agree together to do it and often can work it out without the necessity of testing but, we very often lend a lot of help to people in that connection by at least getting them to calm down a little bit for a few minutes and consider the matter. We work it out with them and people can call us whenever they like.

In Arizona, child custody is now called legal decision-making. The law establishes a preference for joint legal decision-making, and a parent seeking sole legal decision-making will have the burden to prove to the court why such an order is in the best interest of the minor children. Some acceptable reasons might include drug or alcohol abuse, sexual abuse, physical abuse or mental illness.
In making it’s order, the court is required to consider all information that is relevant to the children’s best interest and in particular, the eleven statutory factors. I won’t describe all of those factors here, but they include the past, present and potential future relationship between the parent and the children; the children’s relationship with family members and their adjustment to home, school and community; the mental and physical health of the parents and the children; and if the children are of suitable age and maturity, the wishes of the children.
On this last point, there is no specific age at which a child gets to choose where to live. As the child gets closer to age 18, his or her wishes will carry more weight with the court. Typically, courts start giving significant weight to the child’s wishes around age 12 or 13. If you have more questions concerning legal decision-making or parenting time, please contact me.
