Arizona Bankruptcy and Debt Negotiation Services

Phoenix — Chandler — Mesa — Tempe

Everybody would like to avoid filing for bankruptcy. Yet, when the point is reached where debt is overwhelming and the possibility of losing your home or business is real, bankruptcy can offer you opportunities, including the opportunity to lessen debt levels, the opportunity to make more than you owe each month and the opportunity to avoid credit card interest rates of 20 or 30 percent. In other words, bankruptcy can help you get a financial fresh start.

From Phoenix and Chandler, Arizona, locations, the Law Offices of Jim Olsen, offers bankruptcy counseling and legal services. We handle bankruptcy protection in three primary areas:

• Chapter 7 bankruptcy, in which an individual or family surrenders nonexempt property for liquidation. The proceeds of the assets' sale are used to pay creditors, freeing the debtor from substantial debt. The loss of a home and car in Chapter 7 bankruptcy is rare, and we can help you keep the majority of your assets while still liquidating some to ease your debt.
• Chapter 11 bankruptcy is for businesses that wish to remain in business during and after a bankruptcy action, rather than liquidate assets and close up shop.
• Chapter 13 bankruptcy, is known as “repayment bankruptcy”. This bankruptcy protection is useful for people who have enough disposable income to make a payment toward a portion of existing debt under a court-approved repayment plan. The debtor usually emerges from debt after three to five years.

If you face debt issues, consider scheduling a free appointment with an attorney at Law Offices of Jim Olsen. In addition to effective legal services, we are committed to excellent personal service:
