Phocus Law


Phocus Law is a true one-stop shop for the legal needs of Arizona businesses and their owners & founders. Our Business Law practice handles the needs of companies and individuals across the entire lifecycle of a business: from formation to exit. We have a particular focus on real estate transactions where we work with all parties in real estate financing, investment, development, leasing, and selling. While real estate deals often have unique characteristics specific to real estate, the parties face all of the same day-to-day legal questions as any other company and deserve the same comprehensive and diligent level of legal service. We’re ideally placed to handle both the real estate-specifics, and the daily business legal issues.

In conjunction with our Business Law Practice, our Estate Planning & Commercial Litigation practices are there to help our clients plan for the future, protect their assets, and to handle any disputes that come up in the course of doing business. At Phocus, our goals are to: 1) Provide top-quality legal counsel; 2) Do so cost-effectively; and 3) Be approachable and create an enjoyable, stress-free experience for our clients. We love what we do, and it shows in the way we treat our clients.

Discover what investors like you are saying about AZREIA

Donna Londot

AZREIA is a wealth of information and they are so helpful when starting my investment portion of my real estate company. And it’s great to have someone right in your own state to talk to and run ideas or scenarios by, too. You gave me the expectations I should have with real estate investing. Thanks Mike and your team at AZREIA.

Jose Miller

I love AZREIA! For me, the subgroups are the best! It took me a while to settle on what part of real estate investing I wanted to be a part of and the subgroups allowed me to ask both beginner and very detailed questions to people that were happy to share their knowledge. I like how they've expanded to include more business partners, because I know that those partners are vetted and worry about their reputation inside of AZREIA.

Tony Simuel

I have been attending the AZREIA meetings for several months, it is amazing the amount of information you get from this organization. The networking alone is worth the membership because you will always find what you are looking for to make deals or to learn about how to make deals. Most importantly it gives you the courage to jump in the waters and play!
