Both sides of criminal law, then the defense table

Alexis dedicates her work to pursue high level results and she is driven by empathy to connect on a personal level to fight for her clients. She focused on excelling in law school where she ranked in the top 10 of her law school class and graduated magna cum laude.

She gained experience on both sides of criminal law to become a well-rounded criminal litigator. After graduation, Alexis was admitted to the Arizona State Bar and proudly accepted a position as a trial attorney for the Maricopa County Public Defender’s Office. Over the next three years of Government service, she litigated hundreds of felony offenses ranging from low level drug offenses to high level serious offenses such as homicide and sex crimes. She then entered the private sector and joined a well-respected criminal defense firm in Phoenix and continued to practice criminal defense and litigation.
