Re:  Legality and  Authorization  of Shares  Issued Under Form S-8  Registration
Statement

To the Board of Directors of Axia Group, Inc.


I have acted as special counsel for Axia Group,  Inc., a Nevada corporation (the
"Company"),  in the  limited  capacity of  rendering  an opinion  regarding  the
legality  and  authorization  of the shares  proposed to be  registered  under a
registration  statement on Form S-8 (the  "Registration  Statement") to be filed
with the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  ("the  Commission")  under  the
Securities  Act of 1933,  as amended,  ("the Act").  The Company has  previously
registered a Benefit Plan entitled  "The 2002 Benefit Plan of Axia Group,  Inc."
(the "Benefit  Plan")  pursuant to which the Company had authorized the issuance
of One Million  (1,000,000)  shares of the  Company's  common  stock,  par value
$0.001 (the  "Shares")  and is  currently  proposing to register an amendment to
that  plan to  increase  the  number  of shares  it  authorizes  to Six  million
(6,000,000)  shares of the Company's common stock,  par value $0.001,  for a net
increase of Five Million (5,000,000) shares.

     This  opinion  letter  (this  "Opinion")  is  governed  by,  and  shall  be
interpreted  in accordance  with the Legal Opinion  Accord (the "Accord") of the
ABA Section of Business Law (1991). As a consequence,  it is subject to a number
of  qualifications,  limitations,  all as  more  particularly  described  in the
Accord, and this Opinion should be read in conjunction therewith.

In  connection  with  the  preparation  of this  Opinion,  I have  examined  the
following:

         1.  The Company's Articles of Incorporation and amendments thereto and
         Bylaws as submitted to me by the Company pursuant to my request for
         same;
         2.  The Registration Statement herein referenced;
         3. The Board of Directors Resolution, dated August 28, 2002,
         authorizing and approving the amendment to the Company's 2002 Benefit
         Plan and the preparation of the Registration Statement;
         4. The Company's Section 10(a) Prospectus for the Registration
         Statement previously filed
         5. The Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31,
         2000 and the Company's Form 10-QSB for the quarterly periods ended
         March 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002; 6. Such other documents as I have
         deemed necessary for the purposes of this Opinion.



                                    Page -7-

<PAGE>



You have  represented  to me that the Company is current in its filings with the
SEC, that the Company's  board of directors has  authorized the filing of a Form
S-8 and that the  quantity of shares to be included in the Form S-8 is available
for issuance  based on the  quantity  authorized  for issuance in the  Company's
Articles  of  Incorporation  and on the  amount of shares  actually  issued  and
outstanding.

Additionally,  I  have  made  such  investigations  of  federal  law  as I  have
considered  necessary  and  appropriate  to form a basis  for this  opinion.  My
opinion is qualified by the scope of the review  specified  herein and I make no
representations  as to the sufficiency of my investigation  for this opinion.  I
further  expressly  exempt  from  this  opinion  any  representations  as to the
completeness, adequacy, accuracy or any other aspect of the financial statements
incorporated in the Registration Statement.

The  documentation  and  representations  provided to me for this opinion by the
Company and its duly  authorized  representatives  indicate  that the Company is
validly organized under the laws of the State of Nevada;  the Company is current
in its  filings  with the  Commission;  the  Company's  Board of  Directors  has
authorized  the Benefit Plan;  the amendment to the Benefit Plan;  the Company's
Board of Directors has authorized the filing of the Registration Statement;  and
that the Five  Million  (5,000,000)  shares to be included  in the  Registration
Statement are available for issuance based upon corporate  documentation  and on
the amount of shares  actually  issued  and  outstanding.  As such,  I am of the
opinion that the Shares herein referenced have been duly and validly  authorized
and that subject to compliance  with all provisions of the Plan, the Shares will
be validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock in the
Company.

The opinion set forth above is predicated upon and limited to the correctness of
the  assumptions  set forth herein and in the Accord,  and is further subject to
qualifications, exceptions, and limitations set forth below:

     A.   I am admitted to practice  law in the State of Utah. I am not admitted
          to  practice  law in the State of Nevada or in any other  jurisdiction
          where the Company may own property or transact business.  This opinion
          is with  respect to federal  law only and I have not  consulted  legal
          counsel  from any other  jurisdiction  for the  purpose of the opinion
          contained  herein. I expressly except from this opinion any opinion as
          to whether or to what  extent a Nevada  court or any other court would
          apply  Nevada law, or the law of any other state or  jurisdiction,  to
          any particular  aspect of the facts,  circumstances  and  transactions
          that are the subject of this opinion.
     B.   In  expressing  the  opinion  set forth  herein,  I have  assumed  the
          authenticity and completeness of all corporate documents,  records and
          instruments provided to me by the Company and its  representatives.  I
          have assumed the accuracy of all statements of fact contained therein.
          I have  assumed  that  all  information  and  representations  made or
          provided to me by the  Company or its  authorized  representatives  is
          correct and that there are shares  available to be issued  pursuant to
          the Plan. I have further assumed the  genuineness of signatures  (both
          manual and  conformed),  the  authenticity  of documents  submitted as
          originals,  the  conformity to originals of all copies or faxed copies
          and the correctness of all such documents.
     C.   In  rendering  the  opinion  that the  shares  of  Common  Stock to be
          registered  pursuant  to Form S-8 and  issued  under  the Plan will be
          validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,  I assumed that: (1) the
          Company's board of directors has exercised or will exercise good faith
          in establishing  the value paid for the Shares;  (2) all issuances and
          cancellation  of the Capital  Stock of the  Company  will be fully and
          accurately reflected in the Company's stock records as provided by the
          Company's transfer agent; and (3) the consideration,  as determined by
          the Company's board of directors,  to be received in exchange for each
          issuance of common  stock of the  Company  will have been paid in full
          and  actually  received  by the Company  when the Shares are  actually
          issued.
     D.   I  expressly  except  from the  opinion  set forth  herein any opinion
          concerning the need for compliance by any party,  and in particular by
          the Company, with the provisions of the securities laws,  regulations,
          and/or rules of the United  States of America,  the State of Nevada or
          any other  jurisdiction  with regard to any other issue not  expressly
          addressed herein,  which  exclusion  shall  apply,  but not be


                                    Page -8-

<PAGE>



          limited to, the subsequent  tradeability of the Shares on either state
          or Federal level.
     E.   I  have  assumed  that  the  Company  is  satisfying  the  substantive
          requirements  of  Form  S-8  and  I  expressly  disclaim  any  opinion
          regarding the Company's  compliance  with such  requirements,  whether
          they  are  of  federal  or  state  origin,  or any  opinion  as to the
          subsequent  tradeability  of any Shares issued pursuant to the Benefit
          Plan.
     F.   The  opinion  contained  in this  letter  is  rendered  as of the date
          hereof, and I undertake no and disclaim any,  obligation to advise you
          of any  changes  in or any new  developments  which  might  affect any
          matters or opinions set forth herein.
     G.   I have made no  independent  verification  of the facts asserted to be
          true and  accurate by  authorized  representatives  of the Company and
          have  assumed  that no  person  or  entity  has  engaged  in  fraud or
          misrepresentation   regarding  the  inducement  relating  to,  or  the
          execution or delivery of, the documents reviewed.
     H.   Certain of the remedial provisions of the 2002 Benefit Plan as amended
          may be further limited or rendered  unenforceable  by other applicable
          laws and interpretations.

This  Opinion is valid only as of the  signature  date and may be relied upon by
you only in connection with filing of the S-8 Registration  Statement.  I hereby
consent to its use as an exhibit to the Registration  Statement.  However,  this
opinion  may not be used or  relied  upon  by you or any  other  person  for any
purpose whatsoever,  except to the extent authorized in the Accord,  without, in
each instance,  my prior written consent. In the event that any of the facts are
different  from  those  which  have been  furnished  to me and upon which I have
relied, the conclusions as set forth above cannot be relied upon.

Nothing herein shall be deemed to relate to or constitute an opinion  concerning
any matters not  specifically  set forth  above.  By giving you this opinion and
consent,  I do not admit  that I am an expert  with  respect  to any part of the
Registration  Statement or Prospectus within the meaning of the term "expert" as
used in Section 11 of the Securities  Act of 1933, as amended,  or the Rules and
Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.


                                                     Very truly yours,
