Practice/Industry Group Overview
Since prior to statehood days, Fennemore Craig has helped develop and define laws shaping Arizona business and industry. As Arizona has transitioned from a territory to a state, and then to one of the fastest growing states in the nation, Fennemore Craig has been deeply involved in nearly all of the critical policy areas. For example, Fennemore Craig attorneys helped draft and negotiate major revisions to and lobby the passage of the Arizona Tax Code, the Groundwater Management Act and the Groundwater Recharge Act, as well as hundreds of other significant legislative enactments.
