Arja represented me for a DUI case in Scottsdale. I met with her immediately after being charged and she very quickly was able to speak to the prosecutor and get my charges reduced after my initial hearings. She was attentive and easy to talk to. She gets results.

Jason - Scottsdale DUI
Felony Charges Reduced to Reckless Driving
Arja was extremely knowledgeable and kept us up to date on the entire case. I would hire her and recommend her to anyone- although I hope I never need her help again! But if a problem arises I would be sure to call her!!

Maggie - Mesa Super Extreme DUI
Super Extreme DUI Reduced to First Time Regular
Ms. Shah got my charges completely dismissed. She worked hard, was thorough and took care of all the details. Seriously, hire her. It's complete piece of mind.

R. AGUILARA- Attempted Murder
Attempted Murder Charges DISMISSED
During my recent DUI case and time spent working with Arja Shah I can say I had an absolute positive Experience. She was there to represent me and handle my questions and concerns with ease. Thank you.

MICHAEL- Phoenix DUI
Felony DUI Charge Reduced to a FIne
I endorse this lawyer. She is knowledgeable as well as up to date on the latest case law. She is one of the very few attorneys I would recommend to family or friends.

Michael Pittman (a fellow lawyer)
First, Arja is a superb and energetic attorney who is always willing to listen and help out in client cases. Second, she works hard for your case to minimize or eliminate penalty for the charges you are facing. She has good analytical mind and presents your case successfully. Third, she is approachable even outside work hours if situation calls for it. Always punctual for meetings. Lastly, she is affordable attorney in comparison to some big name law firm where personalized and flexible service is almost impossible. The above review is based on my experience derived from her working on my case.

T. McCarty- Extreme DUI Charge Possible 30 Days Jail
Reduced to Reckless Driving and a Fine
I was totally impressed and grateful for the expertise and successful case Arja handled for me. She answered my calls immediately and saved me allot of professional and personal heart ache. Arja did a great job refuting the States evidence and convinced the Prosecutor that my chewing tobacco was a major issue in the case that the officer did not check. - May 11th 2017

Thomas- Super Extreme DUI
Argued Police Stop Protocols and Reduced to a Fine
Attorney Arja Shah took the time to compile letters from family members and show the Prosecutor that they lacked evidence to move forward with my case. Arja did what she said she would do and was there to help me. Outstanding Attorney.

Andrea- Disorderly Conduct and Domestic Violence
Charged Dismissed
Officers refused to provide an independent test. Arja argued that my rights were violated and my case was dismissed.

Barry Littlejohn- Super Extreme DUI
Case Dismissed
Arja's reputation with the prosecutor helped in my case. The court staff all seemed to respect her and I feel like it helped in getting my case dismissed. Great Attorney

NAJERA- Domestic Violence Charge
Dismissed
Accused of a DUI created so much anxiety that I envisioned jail time that I couldn't afford since I would have lost my job and house. The day that I hired Arja was the day that my anxiety subsided, and when my case was over, I realized why some lawyers are better than others and I thank my lucky stars for Ms. Shah's experience and professionalism.
