An Alternative Business Structure must employ a “Compliance Lawyer” who is an active member of the State Bar of Arizona to practice law and supervise the Alternative Business Structure.

In 2021 the Arizona Supreme Court certified 15 applicants and approved two for certification. In 2022, the Supreme Court certified an additional 38 Alternative Business Structures.
