Thomas A. Benavidez is shareholder and President of Benavidez Law Group, P.C. Thomas graduated cum laude from California Western School of Law in 1996. While in law school, Thomas earned the position of Executive Lead Articles Editor for the California Western International Law Journal, remained perpetually on the Dean's List and clerked for Appellate Defenders, Inc., writing appellate briefs, motions, and memoranda. Before becoming a part of the Hochuli & Benavidez, P.C. team in 1996, Thomas interned for the Honorable Rudi M. Brewster, United States District Court Judge, writing bench memoranda and court orders. When Daniel J. Hochuli retired from private practice in January 2006, the firm's name changed and Thomas became the sole shareholder. Today, Thomas manages the firm and serves as general counsel for the City of Benson, the Regional Transportation Authority of Pima County, Northwest Fire District and Drexel Heights Fire District. He also represents the firm's other clients in real property, employment, contract and general litigation matters. In addition to practicing law, Thomas is a Judge Pro Tem of the Pima County Justice Court and the Marana Municipal Court. He is a member of the Association of Trial Lawyers of America and a graduate of the Arizona College of Trial Advocacy.
Before starting his career in law, Thomas was a competitive rifle marksman. Due to the demands of his family and law practice, Thomas has retired from competition, but still actively participates in shooting sports, archery and hunting.
