"When it comes to land use development agreements in Arizona, Dana Belknap is as good as they come. We routinely use Dana on all of our land use development agreement needs."

-Karrin Kunasek Taylor (DMB Associates, Inc), Scottsdale

"Dana Belknap was a consummate professional during our entire negotiation with the City of Mesa. She had a clear understanding of the material issues at hand from both a legal and political standpoint, which gave her instant credibility with the city staff and legal council. Her "Fair But Firm" policy was very effective during our entire negotiation and I would absolutely recommend her to any group who required this area of expertise."

-Jerry Hug (Waveyard Development, LLC)
