About Elizabeth A
Elizabeth A Faulkner earned her J.D. from Arizona State University in 1990. She moved quickly from law school into the heart of the state’s appellate system. That year she served as a law clerk to Vice Chief Justice James Moeller on the Arizona Supreme Court, an early role that placed her inside judicial decision-making at a high level.
Her time at the court introduced her to appellate procedure and the craft of legal writing. As a clerk she worked on research and opinion preparation. The experience offered a close view of how judges weigh precedent and craft rulings, and it informed her approach to case analysis in later practice.
In 1991 she joined Gust Rosenfeld as a lawyer. At that firm she handled matters that required courtroom readiness and careful client counseling. The early years in private practice gave her repeated chances to try issues, draft pleadings and appear in hearings. Colleagues from that period remember a lawyer who preferred clear arguments and thorough preparation.
By 1996 she was practicing at Faulkner Law Offices. She has maintained a long association with that office since then. Over the years she balanced courtroom work and client advice. Her practice grew to include matters common to employment disputes and related civil claims.
Faulkner is admitted to practice in Arizona. She is a current member of the Arizona Employment Lawyers Association, a professional group that brings together lawyers who handle workplace-related claims. That membership aligns with the kinds of matters she takes on for clients and with a practice rooted in state law and procedure.
Her career path — from a state supreme court clerkship to years at a regional firm and long service at her current office — has given her a steady grounding in both appellate and trial-related work. She approaches cases with an emphasis on clear legal reasoning and practical courtroom experience. She practices employment law at Faulkner Law Offices.
