When the stakes are  high, you need an attorney who has seen it from every angle.

Patrick Nackley represents Arizona property owners, investors, agents, brokers, and closely held businesses in contested real property disputes. Our clients are homeowners disputing claims against associations and boards, owners with claims against neighbors over easements, boundaries, and trespass, owners whose contractor or builder did not deliver, buyers who discovered what the seller knew, and agents, brokers, and their clients in disputes over commissions. Patrick brings more than twenty years of litigation experience, sixteen years of in-house corporate counsel judgment, and the direct, personal attention you will not receive at a large firm.

Difference

Why clients choose Nackley Law.

Big-firm pedigree

Corporate counsel to a private land bank with holdings in 14 U.S. states. Senior counsel at one of Phoenix's leading real estate firms. Patrick has sat at the table on the most complex real estate matters in Arizona — and brought that experience to his own practice.

Senior strategy. Rational fees.

Large firms charge large-firm rates to cover overhead that has nothing to do with your case. Nackley Law delivers senior-level legal judgment at rates that reflect a focused, efficient practice — not a large firm's cost structure.

Who we represent

A practice built for a specific kind of client.

Nackley Law is built for property owners, real estate investors, developers, licensed real estate professionals, and closely held businesses with a dispute over Arizona real property. Most matters the firm handles carry stakes between $50,000.00 and $10 million. Commission disputes, property line disputes, and contractor disputes are considered on their merits regardless of amount. The firm does not handle residential closings or volume work.

Every client receives Patrick's direct attention.
