825 P.2d 949

SKARECKY & HORENSTEIN, P.A., a professional corporation, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. 3605 NORTH 36TH STREET COMPANY, a California limited partnership, Defendant-Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Arizona, Division 1, Department D.

Review Denied March 17, 1992.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Fisher & Smith by Francis P. Smith, Phoenix, for plaintiff-appellant.

Richard J. Herbert and Michael J. Wicks, Phoenix, for defendant-appellee.

OPINION

VOSS, Presiding Judge.

In this opinion we hold that a law firm's acceptance of a client's assignment of the beneficial interest of a deed of trust, intended to secure payment of attorney's fees in a lawsuit concerning the promissory note secured by that deed of trust, does not violate the Arizona Supreme Court's ethical rules. We therefore reverse the superior court's judgment refusing to enforce the assignment.
