We enlisted Patricia Lenzner from O&P to help my wife's family with a probate for my departed BIL. Had a hiccup in the beginning with the life insurance policy and who gets what (reason for 4 stars and not five), but after that, her and her team were stellar. Always available and willing to help through a troubling time.

I had to help an elderly relative through a divorce after her husband left her for another woman. She is hard of hearing and a little slow in her old age. She wanted an attorney that specializes in divorce. Attorney Clonts was so cordial, professional, ethical, and knowledgeable. Even the front desk attendant was so friendly.Attorney Clonts quickly analyzed the opposing attorney’s and court documents, interpreted them in simple easy-to-understand terms, and proposed a plan-of-action. He has a very kind demeanor, but also is quite eloquent. Attorney Clonts is very sharp and smart. He is passionate about truly helping his client. This is the attorney I would want if my life savings depended on it.

Ok, let me be straight and to the point, Michelle is one bad a** attorney! She makes Harvey Specter look like a rookie. My ex came after me and my company for such an unreasonable amount, that when we went to Temp Orders Court and to Mediation, she was able to defend me in such a methodical and professional way that it made opposing counsel look like she brought a spoon to a gun fight! Michelle is smart and she cares. She’s not there to hurt your ex but rather show compassion by gently but directly showing the result of their bad decisions. She’s always 3-4 chess moves ahead of the other attorney, and she sees the whole board and how everything will play out.I wanted my ex to get enough so she was taken care of, but not to a point of hurting me. Michelle handily won, in my opinion, and although no one wins in a divorce, I certainly didn’t get raked over the coals like my ex’s attorney tried to do to me.I have already referred Michelle to two other friends and they think she is not just an incredible and savvy attorney, but she is kind and has the highest of integrity. She was able to negotiate a very amicable parenting plan for me and my children and did it with class and empathy.I interviewed 31 attorneys when my ex wanted to divorce. I’m an expert in hiring and it’s what I have done professionally for 30 years. I reduced it down from 31 to 5 attorneys and then 3rd round interviews with 2 attorneys, but truly she was my pick from the beginning. I’ve done more due diligence than probably anyone when seeking out the best divorce attorney in Maricopa County. You’re welcome! :)If you don’t choose her as your council, then you risk your ex hiring her and then you are going to lose. I tried to make this testimonial as straight shooting, so you don’t make a poor and uninformed decision.Michelle Perkins is your best decision to represent you and the needs of your children. I am so grateful for all her help through one of the toughest times of my life.

I have used now two different lawyers from Owens and Perkins and have never been happier with the service they provide and the interpersonal connections they make with their clients are unmatched! If you are looking for a lawyer who truly sees you as a person and not a paycheck, I highly suggest Owens and Perkins!!

I did some research prior to enlisting Owens & Perkins to assist in my divorce and saw good reviews. We met and I liked everything I heard, so I hired them. They operated in a very professional manner, were prompt and efficient, and ended up getting me a reasonable settlement in spite initial ridiculous claims coming from the other side. They enlightened me on several issues that were to my advantage and we were able to use those to leverage my ex-wife to a settlement absent several assets she was after. Michael Clonts in particular, was on top of the case and provided excellent counsel. He gets my highest recommendation.

My recent divorce after almost 30 years of marriage was handled by Attorney Patricia Lenzner. This divorce was anything but routine and despite living 2,000 miles away, I felt like she was around the corner. This legal process was important to me and it was also important to her. Atty Lenzner was very knowledgeable and very timely with communication which was reassuring during an uncertain time. It was in my best interest to go to trial and she was professional, organized and respected by the judge. I would certainly recommend her and Jordan for any legal matter. My many thanks to both of them!

Michelle Perkins was very communicative, clear, and forthright setting expectations about the specific services I inquired about. Once hired, she continued to meet each expectation she set in a timely, organized, and efficient manner. 2 years after working together an important follow-up concern arose, and Michelle jumped right back in to help resolve it quickly.

Attorney Patricia Lenzner fought for me, always came thru when needed, is skilled, professional, and was able to highlight angles of law that applied to my case for me to come to a reasonable settlement without having to go to trial. A big THANK YOU to her and also to Jordan at the O&P office for all her help!!

I highly recommend this firm due to the level of care I experienced. There was always a kind, friendly voice on the other end of the line no matter the time or day of the week. It really did feel like a small family. Billing was timely and very detailed. Any questions were addressed quickly. I also very much appreciated being checked in on after a tough trial. Owens & Perkins and Attorney Michael J. Clonts, Esq., made what could have been a very difficult, confusing and overwhelming time for me a much better and clearer experience and for that I am truly grateful to them.

I cannot express how grateful I am to have worked with Michael Clonts and Janet on my case. Despite the frustration imposed by the other party and the courts, I always felt communicated with and supported by both of them. It’s thanks to them that my family was reunited. It’s thanks to them that I got back to some semblance of “normal”. Thank you Michael for making me feel like family and working so hard to get things straightened out. We really could not have done it without you.

I do not recommend hiring Michael Clonts. I worked with him through a high profile divorce and I felt he was only interested in getting deals signed even if the deal is not in my best interest. He did not advise me or guide me in any way whatsoever. He did not request discovery or disclosure of any information from opposing party. He also takes too much time off so it is difficult to be in contact with him. I regret hiring him to work on my case and I am now working with a different attorney trying to undue and rectify the damage already done.

So many great things to say about Michelle and her law firm. She has helped two generations of our family make the right decisions when it comes to estate planning and financial advice. She is a true professional and a stellar attorney. She stays on top of everything and does it all with a great sense of humor. We had some complicated family and real estate issues and she guided us through everything. I am an attorney myself and I cannot recommend her enough! It is truly a pleasure working with her.

I am very pleased with my choice to hire Ms. Lenzner to help in my divorce proceedings. There were quite a few twist and turns in my particular case and Patricia was able to handle them all with ease. I especially liked the fact that Patricia values honesty and integrity over the typical lawyers tactics, unlike my husbands lawyer, for example. She remained ethical throughout the entire process and I would fully recommend her to anyone facing such a difficult time in their lives.

I have used this law firm for 20+ years. Michelle Perkins is the best lawyer in the states. She has handled several cases for me over the years and the quality and professionalism cannot be matched by any other law firm. Not only does this amazing group of lawyers dedicate everything they have to there clients but Michelle herself is unstoppable in court. Her knowledge of the law is vast and her genuine personality makes any difficult situation a little less stressful. This lawyer’s office is top notch. If you want to ensure you get the best advice in the state reach out to Michelle Perkins law office, they are amazing.

Michael Clonts is the most amazing family lawyer I've ever had the opportunity to know and have represented me in my family case. He is organized, understanding, knowledgeable, and fair. He shows patience and dedication in and out of the courtroom. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a strong lawyer who cares.
I have used Owes and Perkins for my divorce. They did and exceptional and professional job handling every aspect of my divorce.I would highly recommend this law firm to anyone. The entire staff is so friendly and always happy to assist you with your questions. I recently had a problem with an old divorce retrieving personal property and Trish was amazing and openly willing to help me out with my ex husband. I truly can’t thank her enough for her kindness.

Imagine my delight at finding an attorney who is personable, knowledgeable, empathetic and straightforward. Michelle Perkins actively listened to my sordid tale of being the executor of a sticky family estate issue and with kindness, much needed levity and sincerity she quickly clarified the role and guided me to a simple solution that other attorneys I had spoken to had not presented as a legal option.I am very happy I was convinced to contact one more attorney. From start (quick online form) to resolution, everyone I spoke to at Owens & Perkins was professional and personable. I would highly recommend.

Laura

They handled my divorce with compassion and grace.

Owens and Perkins are a top-flight team. They handled my divorce with compassion and grace. Not only were they timely and responsive, but they also did it with the necessary gusto required in these types of proceedings. Always having my best interest in mind. Max was always there for me, returning calls and emails promptly. Considering the COVID-19 environment, he was a Rock Star! Thanks, Max! I highly recommend Max and his team at Owens and Perkins. Thanks!

Douglas

Thank you, Owens and Perkins, for taking my case on and fighting for what was best for everyone involved.

Owens and Perkins as a whole has been a great experience for such a hard time in life. They assured me everything would be handled with their experience and compassion for the well being of my children and myself and they followed through until the end and more. Big shout out to my attorney Michael Clonts for being so quick and thorough with my case. He understood what was best for my children and was there whenever I needed him. Life is complicated but not with the best attorneys a family could ask for. Thank you, Owens and Perkins, for taking my case on and fighting for what was best for everyone involved. I will absolutely recommend anyone I know to this firm and continue to use for any issues that may arise.

Emily

Extraordinary law firm!

Extraordinary law firm! The level of professionalism, attention to detail and compassion was truly remarkable. They handled my divorce and followed up with my new estate plan. I knew what to expect each step of the way. I can’t thank you all enough for my new life, I am enjoying it! I highly recommend this firm, they are a 5+++!

Lisa

She is a great advocate and a wonderful lawyer.

Michelle Perkins rocks!! I have had the pleasure (and it unusual to say dealing with lawyers is a pleasure) of using Michelle Perkins and Owens & Perkins as our lawyers for the past 20 plus years. I have used Michelle for wills and trusts, probate, real estate matters, powers of attorney and other miscellaneous matters and have never been disappointed. She is always clear on the best approach and gives you the best and worst case scenarios on each matter so that you can make informed decisions. I know that she will always do her best when representing me and has been reassuring during times of stress. Her knowledge and ability to clearly and concisely explain the law and its process allows me to better comprehend each situation. She is a great advocate and a wonderful lawyer. I have never been disappointed in an outcome and admire her integrity.

Heather

I am forever grateful to Michael.

Divorce is scary. No one looks forward to contacting a law firm after realizing you need to get a divorce; however, my experience with Michael Clonts was one I am absolutely thankful for. Michael provided me with the best advice and guidance from our first consultation and throughout the whole process. I always felt protected and empowered knowing I had Owens & Perkins representing me. I am forever grateful to Michael for his hard work and delivering a positive outcome.

Maritza

I would give Michelle Perkins of Owens & Perkins 10 Stars if I could!

I reached out to Michelle Perkins for a consultation during a very difficult time in my marriage. I knew within minutes of our initial conversation that I would hire Michelle. During this initial conversation, Michelle was compassionate, patient, a great listener, but most importantly astute to understanding an extremely difficult personality type in my (now ex). She made me feel like we would move through the divorce process together and would be able to reach a settlement with low conflict- which we did. Michelle made me feel safe, empowered, and capable throughout the entire process. Because of Michelle’s experience, knowledge, tenacity, and ethical nature we finalized the divorce swiftly within months without excessive conflict and costs with integrity and grace. Michelle kept me informed and made me feel like I was her only client at all times. More importantly, I saw first hand how much Michelle cares about her clients. I would give Michelle Perkins of Owens & Perkins 10 Stars if I could! Truly an outstanding attorney. I consider Michelle a friend and ally!

Robin

I would recommend his services without hesitation

Max Hanson did great work! I needed get the case wrapped up as quickly as possible to allow me to close on a house. Mr. Hanson was on ball, very responsive and reachable. He definitely helped expedite things, as much as he reasonably could, without cutting corners. I would recommend his services without hesitation.

Dennis

We couldn’t be more happy with her representation and we couldn’t recommend her enough to others in need of an excellent estate attorney.

Our family has been using this law firm for over a decade to take care of all our trust and estate matters. Michelle Perkins has been there for us every step of the way. Not only is she is an extremely professional and competent attorney, she has been a caring adviser and friend. Aside from being an amazing attorney, she has also connected us with other uber-competent professionals such as accountants and real estate agents that have guided us through many stages of our family’s history. We couldn’t be more happy with her representation and we couldn’t recommend her enough to others in need of an excellent estate attorney.

Georgi

I highly recommend the services of Owens & Perkins.

Unfortunately life throws curve balls, and some of those pitches can be personally devastating. I’ve had to rely on the support and services of Owens & Perkins twice over the past six years, with two different cases. All of the staff, especially my attorney, were knowledgeable, helpful and never left me standing alone throughout the difficult times. I needed someone that would fight for me – not subtly, but aggressively. I had to go to trial for one of my cases, and we won. I’m hoping I don’t encounter any additional trials in life that require their services, but, if I do, I’ll walk confidently knowing I’m represented by the best. I highly recommend the services of Owens & Perkins.

Jessica

This is an extraordinary law office.

This is an extraordinary law office. They were very helpful with my case, I was always informed of what was going on and everyone in the office was so polite and very helpful with my whole case.

Client

Diane

We can’t thank you enough.

Max, we can’t thank you enough for never holding back and being such a straight shooter.

Mark

Friendly, efficient, knowledgeable

I recently used the services of Michelle Perkins at Owens & Perkins Law Offices for a third update of my trust. I am so pleased that Michelle and her stafft are the same friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable people that I have experienced over the years. Michelle Perkins was very helpful and patient as she explained every detail of my trust to me. I am grateful for their continuing care for the details of my estate.

Leni

Great communication

Michael was very knowledgeable and helpful. He made sure I understood everything step by step and had great communication throughout the process.

Brittni

Top notch and very professional

Absolutely a top notch and very professional law firm. After switching from another attorney and dealing with a lot of frustrating issues, I was extremely happy to work with Michael Clont’s for the past 1.5 years until my case was resolved. I work in real estate development and have frequent interactions with Attorneys. The level of attentiveness to details and and prompt response from Michael’s team has been bar none.

Ali

I’m glad Max was in my corner, fighting for me.

I just recently went through a contentious divorce process. I retained Mr. Hanson for this unpleasant endeavor. I’m glad that I did. Max told me what to expect, without sugar coating anything. Even though I didn’t like what he was telling me at times, he was absolutely correct in keeping my expectations realistic. He was always professional, courteous, but direct with his assessment on things. I’m glad Max was in my corner, fighting for me. I highly recommend him and his team. Thanks, Max!

Client

You guys are the best!!!

I have been a client of Owens and Perkins for more than 20 years. I call them whenever I have a legal question. Recently, my soon to be daughter in law received an inheritance and there were some issues with her family and the amount she was to receive. I had her go to Owens and Perkins to get things clarified. The advice she received will ultimately save her inheritance for herself, rather then spending it all on legal fees. Thank you so much for being honest and straightforward. I can’t tell you the relief it is to have a legal team you can trust. You guys are the best!!!

Client

Thanks a lot Michelle for your valuable words of wisdom!

Michelle has provided me with excellent guidance on many tough decisions I recently needed to make. Thanks a lot Michelle for your valuable words of wisdom!​

Michael C.

Michael Clonts is very honest and trustworthy

I hired Michael Clonts to represent me in my custody case with my ex. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. He made sure I understood everything step by step, and had great communication throughout the entire process. He responded to my calls and emails promptly to ease any concerns I was having. He is very honest and trustworthy, which are probably the best qualities you could want and have in a lawyer! I will definitely hire him again in the future if needed.
