Jordan Rose, President & Founder, Rose Law Group pc
Term 2024
Jordan, President, Rose Law Group pc, started leasing space for just herself in another lawyer’s storage room and has, in twenty years, grown the firm to the largest woman-owned Law Firm in Arizona history. In July of 2019 Jordan was recognized by ‘The Business Journals’ as one of the top 100 national Influencers in law – amongst just three from Arizona. In the same month, she was featured on the cover of ‘Trends’ magazine in an article entitled “The Legal Ease of Jordan Rose” the author writes, “she feels she can outwork anybody and she likes to win”. Jordan’s passion is adding value to her client’s business propositions—her goal being “to make my clients more money.” The Phoenix Business Journal once asked Ms. Rose what she enjoys most about the practice of law, and she responded, “the ability to help people solve their problems.”
In 2016 Governor Doug Ducey appointed Jordan to serve as the only private industry member of the State Groundwater Committee charged with developing water policy for the State. In December 2014, Governor Elect Doug Ducey named Jordan to serve, along with Michael Bidwill, Don Brandt, Jim Click and Angela Ducey, as a Co-Chair for the Inauguration Committee.
Jordan has been pleased to represent most of the publicly traded homebuilders doing business in Arizona in their land use issues (winning some of the most complicated zoning cases in the Phx metro area), the Phoenix Rising Football Club, the PGA TOUR, The Phoenix Suns, Microsoft, BASIS charter schools, Great Hearts charter school, Phoenix Country Day School, the largest data center developers involved in the state, international energy firms, some of the largest landowners in the State of Arizona, including the landowner developing multiple electric vehicle manufacturing locations, and the most prominent water solutions developer in the world, among others. She is currently a member of Greater Phoenix Leadership and serves as the co-chair of the City/County committee.
Jordan also owns another company, Rose Law Group Reporter, which employs three journalists to produce newsworthy publications for various industry groups, including the “The Dealmaker,” a must-read daily publication featuring the top stories in Arizona real estate each day, just before lunch. In addition, during the pandemic, in order to help schools and businesses around the nation get back to work/school, she started a company, www.healthyverify.com that is the country’s only medically based independent certification company helping to minimize the risk of disease.
Rose Law Group pc is a full-service business and real estate Law Firm, providing services ranging from trusts and estates and family law to employment, business litigation, class actions, renewable energy, space law, COVID-19 relief funding, business and real estate transactions, renewable energy, cannabis, zoning/land use and lobbying. It is the only Law Firm in Arizona (and possibly the nation) to combine attorneys with an array of urban planners, LEED-certified consultants, project managers, energy consultants, and construction managers so that the firm can take a project from due diligence and acquisition through planning and project management on to actual construction. She practices in the areas of business consulting, government relations, municipal issues, land use, zoning, administrative law and lobbying.
Jordan and her husband Jason have two wonderful little boys, who they love to watch do just about anything.
