About
As an Arizona probate, estate planning, and business attorney, I focus my practice on all areas of probate and trust administration (both contested and uncontested), estate planning (estate and gift tax planning, wills, trusts, etc.), and business planning (formation of business entities, sales and acquisitions, business succession planning, buy-sell agreements, contracts, etc.) for my clients. I utilize my 20+ years of experience practicing law in Arizona to provide top quality, cost effective, results-driven legal expertise to my clients. I also provide the best possible value to my clients by consistently resolving their legal issues quickly and efficiently.

John enjoys his work and it shows in the way he responds, the information he provides, and the professionalism he displays. He listens and understands your needs and develops a plan to fit those needs. I highly recommend John.
I met John Even 13 years ago when he constructed my mother's estate plan and we reconnected recently after her passing. John has been an expert guide through the process of settling the estate that included residences and vehicles in two states. This required coordinated interactions with an attorney in another state, a tax professional, two financial institutions and the Departments of Transportation in two states. John was always supportive and responsive by phone or in more detail by email to both simple and complex questions. Settling an estate is often a once in a lifetime task but John made the process logical, sequential and completable. Highly recommended.
I found John after a 15 year search for an attorney who was knowledgeable, experienced, ethical and focused on aligning my estate plan with my pro-life values and catholic beliefs. Having used two other legal firms originally to develop, and subsequently revise, my estate plan in the prior 15 years, I discovered the stark difference between other attorneys out there and John. Working with John on my revised estate plan was both educational and painless and resulted in a plan that finally matched my values. I recommend him highly and give him a 10 out of 10 rating with 10 being the best!
We found attorney John Even to be highly qualified and easy to talk to and understand. He is an excellent attorney who answered all our questions. We found him to be honest and trustworthy and highly competent. We would rate John with five stars.
John was very courteous, respectful and patient as we walked through the Estate Planning documents process. I highly recommend John and will return to him for my future needs.
John did a wonderful job in assessing my needs and offering the perfect solution for them. He offered good advice, and answered all my questions with ease. John is professional, knowledgeable and easygoing. I would highly recommend him for your estate planning.
John did a nice job creating our trust and wills. Everything was very well organized and professional.
I am a retired woman here in Arizona with my adult daughter and her family living in Florida. I needed to set up a revocable living trust with my daughter as the beneficiary along with the accompanying estate planning documents. In reviewing the draft copies Mr. Even had prepared I was deeply impressed with how thorough he is, how insightful and wise in his recognition of the needs of our family. He is a brilliant attorney and a warm, personable man. I have spoken to him in one phone conversation, and on signing the estate planning documents I met him in person. He made me feel at ease. I know he has my family’s best interest at heart. I also found my email correspondence and phone conversations with Julie Garman, paralegal, to be cordial and professional. I enjoyed working with Julie as well.
We were impressed with the integrity of Mr. Even. He was knowledgeable on all aspects of our Will Package and would hire him again if we ever needed to do so.
We feel very confident that we received the best advice from John & his staff. They were responsive to our questions and raised items we may not have thought of.
