Scott Mihalik

Introduction
I was born in Phoenix, Arizona and have lived here all of my life, with the exception of my time in law school.  After high school, I began working for the U.S. Postal Service and continued working there in various capacities for nearly fifteen years.  While working for the postal service, I served as a union steward for the local union and developed an interest in law.  Based on this interest, I finished my bachelor’s degree at Arizona State University while working full-time for the postal service.  Afterward, I attended law school in Seattle, Washington.  While originally intending to stay in the Seattle area after law school, my wife and I decided that we wanted to move back to the Phoenix area and I began my legal career in my hometown.  I am an avid supporter of Phoenix’s local sports teams, and enjoy attending games when I have the opportunity.
