Press Release 

Asset Protection Attorney Ike Devji joins multi-state law firm of Davis Miles McGuire Gardner, PLLC – expanding needed legal services to high net worth clients and their advisors.

Phoenix, February 10, 2014:  

Noted Asset Protection Attorney Ike Devji has joined the law firm of Davis Miles McGuire Gardner, PLLC (DMMG) and its multi-state legal practice in an of-counsel capacity.

Lawyer Devji is in his 11^th year of focused Asset Protection legal practice and has helped protect over $5 Billion in personal assets for a national client base of several thousand physicians and private business owners, c-level executives and a small but growing group of professional athletes and entertainers for over a decade. Devji formerly acted as the managing attorney of one of the nation’s leading asset protection only law firms and remains of counsel with that firm as well.

“This new relationship does not distract from my practice focus, which remains centered on Asset Protection, Wealth Transfer and Risk Management for successful individuals”, said Devji in a recent interview.

“What this new partnership achieves is the creation of a focused asset protection practice group at DMMG and an expansion of the level of service I can bring my clients and the financial advisors, CPAs and medical practice management groups that refer their most cherished clients to me. I now have the additional legal expertise of some 70 odd attorneys with a high degree of skill and experience in 17 additional legal practice areas ranging from real estate to estate planning. This allows me to focus on what I’m best at and help coordinate my clients’ other complex planning and litigation needs in the holistic way they increasingly want and need”.

The timing of this new partnership is key for several reasons, not the least of which is the vulnerable state of the wealth of many of the Southwest’s most successful business people. The last 6 years in particular has shown that there is a substantial disconnect between the needs of many Arizona residents and the relatively low level of asset protection and defensive risk management planning they have in place. “The fact so many people in Arizona and across the U.S. lost a lifetime’s worth of work by relying on insurance and traditional estate planning alone speaks for itself” says Devji. “My new associates and I are going to work hard to increase not only the level of service and protection these folks have in place, but also the level of awareness of the needs of successful entrepreneurs of all types with public at large and legal and advisory communities in particular”.

Devji and his new associates will be hosting a variety of educational events for both the public and advisors which will continue the focus of Devji’s national speaking and educational activities and expend them by adding the expertise of DMMG’s other attorneys in other areas of the law. Devji is a popular and in-demand national speaker and has taught on this issue to literally thousands of advisors and consumers nationally. His scheduled speaking engagements include presentations at the request of the Financial Planning Association of Greater Phoenix, The Arizona State Physicians Association, a private surgery group and private presentation for professional athletes at the request of a boutique wealth management firm in Atlanta. This is in addition to video teaching presentations for NBI and The American Educational Institute (AEI), which will be shown to physicians across the United States over 1000 times in AEI’s classrooms.

Ike Devji’s work as an author has appeared in print and online in countless medical journals including Physicians Practice, Worth Magazine, Advisor Today, Public Accountant, Life Insurance Selling, Financial Consultant, Best Thinking. Expert Beacon and many other sources in additional to his being a contributing author to the book Optimal Financial Health, The Doctor’s Essential Wealth Management and Preservation Handbook. Devji is has been rated “10.0 Superb” by AVVO for the years 2013, 2012 and 2011 in addition to being named a WORTH magazine “Leading Wealth and Legal Advisor” and among North Valley magazine’s “Top Lawyers” in 2013.  He is a 30 year plus Arizona resident and a double ASU Alumni.
