He has assisted individuals in conservatorship and guardianship matters involving minors and incapacitated adults. Bryce also has experience with claims against mortgage servicers, including navigating the statutory and regulatory framework of the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA).

In addition to his litigation practice, Bryce has assisted clients with real property transactions including leasing agreements and the sale of real property. Bryce has also provided third-party legal opinions as special counsel for borrowers on secured loans, as well as prepared Negative Assurance Letters as local counsel for Tax Lien Collateralized Notes and assisted with the summarization of the tax lien laws of various states in Preliminary Offering Memorandum for the same transactions.

While the bulk of his practice is in the Arizona Superior Court, Bryce has experience with the District Court of Arizona, the Arizona Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the Arizona Supreme Court.
