Sandra Burt

Sandra Burt has been an attorney in the Phoenix area since 1989. Her career began when she received the prestigious position of clerkship in the Arizona Court of Appeals with the Honorable Edward C. Voss.

In her three years at the Court of Appeals, Sandra presented cases to panels of appellate court judges, researched and drafted legal memoranda and opinions for the panel, and discussed legal theories and principles with the appellate judiciary. Sandra’s appellate experience has made her uniquely qualified in her presentation of arguments to the court, both in written and oral form.

Upon leaving the Court of Appeals, Sandra began practicing law exclusively in the area of Family Law. Sandra’s practice is based upon the idea that it is possible to provide her clients with personal attention, effective and assertive litigation, and mastery of the principles of law applicable to each client’s case. Sandra is committed to protecting her clients’ rights and assets, ensuring they understand the pros and cons of all available options, and helping them achieve their desired results efficiently and proactively. She is a skilled negotiator and tenacious litigator, equally comfortable resolving disputes in and out of the courtroom.  Sandra has extensive experience handling complex property divisions, matters involving hidden income, and asset tracing. Sandra brings a meticulous eye to financial disclosures and forensic issues. Whether representing professionals, business owners, or stay-at-home parents, Sandra tailors her strategy to each client’s unique goals and circumstances.

Sandra runs a boutique law practice, so she or a member of her staff is available to address a client’s needs at all times. Sandra’s clients value her honesty, clarity, and unwavering focus on protecting their interests, both personal and financial. Through this approach, Sandra has built a successful practice.

Sandra has been on several State Bar committees related to Family Law; she has also served as a judge pro tem and is a trained mediator.  Sandra focuses on all aspects of family law, including dissolutions, separations, custody cases, post-dissolution modifications, child support matters, spousal support, property division, business valuations, spousal support issues, litigation of family court matters, and mediation.
