Overwhelmed by Probate, Conservatorship, or Guardianship Issues in Arizona?
We Can Help.

Probate and estate issues can affect anyone. A parent dies without a will. A family member mismanages trust funds. A loved one becomes incapacitated, and no one knows who’s legally in charge. Whether you’re in Scottsdale, Phoenix, or elsewhere in Arizona, these moments are stressful—and what you do next matters.

Unfortunately, most people don’t know where to turn. You might not understand how probate, conservatorship, or guardianship law works in Arizona. Or worse, you might be getting bad advice from someone who only dabbles in these high-stakes areas of law.

In Arizona, a guardianship gives someone legal authority over a person’s personal and medical decisions, while a conservatorship grants control over their financial affairs. Both require careful court involvement and the right legal strategy to protect vulnerable individuals and avoid costly mistakes.

Jeannine Huck

“Jennifer Kupiszewski and Vanessa Ramirez have been absolutely wonderful to work with! Because our family was separated by distance, it was difficult to find an attorney – and with short notice – to help us handle our mother-in-law’s affairs. They are professional, prompt and understanding of the issues families face during difficult times. We would 100% recommend them!.“
