About

Lincoln & Wenk, PLLC

At Lincoln & Wenk, PLLC we believe clients hire lawyers rather than law firms. We believe that if an attorney provides quality representation, timely communication, and affordable rates, the clients will not only come, they'll come back. We believe clients want to choose their attorney, rather than having their attorney chosen for them. We believe clients are tired of hiring large law firms with bloated overhead. We believe in putting customer service back into the practice of law.

We are a general practice law firm handling a variety of legal issues, including medical malpractice defense and other civil defense cases, divorce and family law, plaintiff personal injury and wrongful death claims not involving medical malpractice, business formations and transactions, wills and trusts, probate, DUI and misdemeanor criminal citations. Although newly formed, our attorneys have over sixteen years of legal experience and bring quite a breadth of knowledge with them. If you aren't sure whether we can handle your case, just ask. If we can't help you, we'll let you know and we'll refer you to someone who can.

Our offices are proudly located in downtown Phoenix and in the growing west valley, where we can conveniently serve clients in Phoenix, Goodyear, Mesa, Tempe, Litchfield Park, Avondale, Scottsdale, Buckeye, Glendale, Peoria, El Mirage, Sun City, and Surprise. We pride ourselves on providing personal, professional, and affordable quality legal services.

    We went to see Vanessa for estate planning, Vanessa made a complex situation, for us, a very simple process. Vanessa was thorough, friendly and yet very professional. She made us think of things we never would have even considered during this process. We now consider Vanessa and Lincoln & Wenk “our” attorneys. We have given several references to friends and family and highly recommend them.

    They were direct, helpful, as well as empathetically understanding of my situation. On top of that Michael was honest and direct about what to expect and what was going to happen. I could not have asked for a better attorney.

    We recently had this firm help us with our Estate Planning. Our attorney was Daniel J. Esparza, Esq.

He also was very personable, professional and extremely knowledgeable in assisting us with the various components of the Trust plan. Daniel Esparza has current knowledge of the tax implications that will definitely help to protect our heirs as they follow our Estate Plan instructions. We appreciated the warm atmosphere that the receptionist and notary presented in the carrying out of their respective duties. We are very happy with the law firm of Lincoln & Wenk and highly recommend their services for all of your legal needs.Thank you.

    I knew without a doubt that I wanted to hire a law firm to handle my divorce because I wanted it done promptly and properly. Russ put me at ease during the initial consultation and working with him and Barb throughout the process was a breeze. The judge signed the consent decree as filed, thanks to the thorough work of this legal team. I highly recommend them!

    Attny Thomas Tuohy got assigned in handling my living trust, estate planning, and supporting legal docs. I usually don’t have the time to submit reviews but for the excellent service he provided throughout the process, definitely worth the time to write this up! Attny Tuohy was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and incredibly responsive and helpful with all the questions during our phone meetings and email communication. He was very thorough and detailed in educating me on the process and provided several advise on scenarios I presented. He accommodated my hectic schedule re signing of the docs at their desert ridge office. Overall, it was a very positive and seamless experience from start to finish!!! I highly recommend this law firm !!!

    Everyone we came in contact with was professional, helpful, and courteous. We delayed quite a bit from our original appointment to update our trust and were sent friendly reminders to schedule an appointment to follow-up. We finally completed our trust and it was a very positive experience.

    The lawyer and legal aide I worked with were very efficient at getting started by having me fill out questionnaire at the beginning. The lead attorney, Lisa Monnette, and the Legal Aide, Barbara Alford, quickly generated a case overview and outline for proceeding ahead. They were very helpful in explaining what would happen and educated me on legal language. I feel they did an excellent job. They were both easy to work with and encouraged me to ask questions and contact them by email or phone. They made me feel comfortable when I was lost in the use of legal terms. Signing documents was very easy, I signed documents at the reception desk and set my own times to come in for signing. The retainer fee I paid at the beginning was right on the mark for my costs.

    After 30 years of marriage, and the initial consultation, I told my ex-wife I had hired Mr. Wenk for the divorce. She snapped back that she “would make this the worst divorce”, and then her attack began by hiring opposing counsel and filing as the petitioner ahead of me. Throughout the divorce, the ex-wife and her counsel were aggressive and angry, using abusive and defamatory words to make false claims to posture and attack to split our estate in her favor. In the early part of this humiliating attack, I called the office and spoke with Tammy, the paralegal. She reassured me that I did not have to succumb to bullying. My life changed then significantly for the better. Ultimately, ex-wife’s legal aggressions were futile. Russ Wenk is an Esquire Extraordinaire. He knew everything about how and what to do. I had fairness in the hearings and mediation. Mr. Wenk was able to communicate in a great way achieve legal results and so that the judge and mediator could see ex-wife’s and her counsel’s absurdities. After the day of mediation, I felt like Russ was good friend. A settlement was reached. Accounts were split in accordance with the complex mediation agreement. Investment properties were sold and proceeds were split. At this time, ex-wife continues with dragging acceptance of the split of the estate, and I continue with legal collections of a small amount due to me from her.

    Daniel Esparza helped myself and my family through a very difficult time. He is a commensurate professional as well as a fine individual.

    Thomas Tuohy was assigned to help us with my living trust and estate planning. Tuohy made the process really easier for us. He made us comfortable by explaining the entire process and is extremely knowledgeable. He made sure that we are familiar with the new terminologies which came across during the process and shared the legal advantages of doing each steps. He was answering all our emails with detailed descriptions before finalizing the documents. Their desert ridge office is well equipped and treated us very well throughout the process. Overall, it was a very good service and seamless experience till closure. I highly recommend this law firm for other people who are looking for legal services.

    We all know we should but often delay doing a will, trust and all the other legal paperwork that important to have to make things easier for your loved ones! Daniel Esparza, Esq maybe it simple. He is very understanding, patient, and thorough. He walks you through everything with simple explanations of what it all means including how to handle all the rest of your “stuff” with a detailed check list. I highly recommend him to assist in the process. Stop procrastinating and get it done!
