Rich J. Peters is a proud native of Phoenix, Arizona. As the owner of R.J. Peters & Assoc., P.C., his firm operates less than one mile from the hospital he was born at. Rich has limited his legal practice to Family Law since 1992. He was sworn in by the State Bar of Arizona on October 25, 1992, just a few days after his 25th birthday. Rich often brags that he was the youngest lawyer in the state when he was sworn in, but this is truly just a guess. Rich has owned R.J. Peters & Assoc. Since 2005. Prior to that, he worked for two very prominent Family Law firms in Glendale and Phoenix. While not every case needs to go to Court, Rich does enjoy being in the Courtroom and considers that one of his greatest skills. Although being born and raised in Phoenix, Rich did move around a bit during his youth, spending time in Spain, Houston, and South Africa. In 1989 he graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelor’s Degree from the College of Business. In 1992 he graduated from the University of Arkansas with a Juris Doctor. He immediately returned home to Phoenix after law school. Four of Rich’s five children have graduated from Arizona Universities, and his youngest is graduating in May 2020. He and his wife Jennifer enjoy their time traveling and boating.

Marc graduated Suma Cum Laude from Arizona Summit Law School where he was awarded CALI Excellence for the Future awards in Family Law, Constitutional Law, Property Law, Tort Law, and Antitrust Law. He is most comfortable in the courtroom, acting as an unyielding advocate for his clients. Outside court, Marc prides himself on being to provide direct and knowledgeable advice to his clients, especially in legally and factually complex matters, so that they are able to make informed decisions about their case and appropriately weigh their options. However, when Marc isn’t busy eviscerating an opposing party on cross-examination or planning his strategy from the trenches, he is enjoying an otherwise calm life with his wife and two children.
