DeConcini McDonald Yetwin & Lacy, P.C. - Phoenix, AZ

INTRODUCTION

The firm that is today DeConcini McDonald Yetwin & Lacy, P.C., was founded in 1968 under the name DeConcini McDonald by Evo DeConcini, Dennis DeConcini and John R. McDonald.

Anyone familiar with Arizona and U.S. history will likely recognize those names as belonging to people who helped shape the state of Arizona and the United States Congress:

- Evo DeConcini served as a Justice of the Arizona Supreme Court, Arizona Attorney General, Pima County Superior Court Judge, and a member of the Arizona Board of Regents.

- Dennis DeConcini served as Pima County Attorney and represented Arizona in the United States Senate from 1977 until his retirement in 1995.

- John McDonald served as President of the Arizona School Boards Association.

Reflecting the historical impact of the DeConcinis in particular, several of Arizona’s landmark buildings bear the family name, including the Evo A. DeConcini U.S. Courthouse and Federal Building and the DeConcini Port of Entry at the United States/Mexico border crossing.

The attorneys and staff of DeConcini McDonald Yetwin & Lacy take pride in our reputation of commitment to the communities in which we live and work. This commitment is reflected in our pro bono, civic, and philanthropic activities throughout Arizona.

Our attorneys and paralegals are recognized often by the State Bar of Arizona as well as the Volunteer Lawyers Program of Southern Arizona Legal Aid, Inc. (SALA) for providing services and legal expertise to those in our community who can least afford it. Requests for pro bono assistance are coordinated for the firm through the following organizations: Southern Arizona Legal Aid https://www.sazlegalaid.org/services and Step Up To Justice http://www.stepuptojustice.org/.
