Your Justice Is Our Priority
Under Arizona Law A.R.S. § 25-319, ‘the court may grant a maintenance order for either spouse for any of the following reasons if it finds that the spouse seeking maintenance:’
- lacks sufficient property to provide for his/her reasonable needs
- is unable to be self-sufficient through appropriate employment, or is the custodian of a child whose age or condition prevents the spouse from working outside the home, or lacks earning ability in the labor market adequate to be self-sufficient
- has made significant financial or other contribution to the education, training, vocational skills, career or earning ability of the other spouse
- had a marriage of long duration and is of an age that may prevent the spouse from gaining employment adequate to be self-sufficient; or
- has significantly reduced that spouse’s income or career opportunities for the benefit of the other spouse.

Primary Practices
If a couple settles or goes through mediation, a spousal maintenance amount is mutually agreed upon. If the case is litigated, a judge will decide whether an individual qualifies for spousal maintenance. If a couple cannot reach a mutually satisfactory agreement, a judge will make the decision for them.
Our attorneys will guide you through the appellate process and ensure you make the most of your right to appeal a decision. We have experience in criminal appeals for such charges as:
- Drug crimes
- Aggravated assault
- White collar
- Sex crimes
- Shoplifting
- Theft
- Domestic violence
- More
The Schill Law Group understands the high stakes when facing a criminal conviction, and we know that every aspect of your case could be vitally important in state or federal appellate court. We will provide you with an exceptional appeals strategy, using our team’s extensive knowledge of Arizona law and legal tactics to give you the best chance for success. We take pride in representing those who have had their reputation and life blemished by an unfair criminal conviction.
Don’t accept a “guilty” verdict. The Schill Law Group criminal appeals attorneys in Arizona can file an appeal or petition on your behalf and fight to get a new trial and/or possible reduced sentence. Contact us today for your free consultation.
Don’t Wait To Appeal Your Conviction
You only have a short time to file a Notice of Appeal, therefore you must act immediately to preserve your right.
