- Arizona Bankruptcy Filings Take Downturn in March | Legal News | News Ticker
For what seems like many years, the people of Arizona and the rest of the United States have been waiting for the economy to finally hit rock bottom. The reason is that once it does, the only direction in which it can move is up. One of the most direct ways to measure the financial health of residents who live in this type of economy is to track the number of bankruptcy filings that are filed. While it’s way too early to say that the economy is on its way back, the statistics regarding Arizona bankruptcy filings for March of 2011 have been released, and the results are somewhat encouraging.
Specifically, the statistics show that there were 3,878 Arizona bankruptcy cases filed in March, which is down from 4,135 in March of 2010. In the Phoenix metro area, bankruptcy filings dropped from 3,063 in March of 2010 to 2,813 last month. This is still a large jump from the February filings, which stood at just over 1,800, but March has historically seen a much higher number of filings in March than in February in any given year. Finally, March’s bankruptcy filings were the second consecutive month that the number of filings dropped from the same month in the previous year for two months in a row since the official beginning of the current recession.
Clearly, this is seen by many people as good news and by some others as an indication that the tide is turning. However, for many others the worst is not yet in the past. With the jobs market continuing to struggle and the real estate market continuing to be mired in a terrible downturn of its own, there still could be trouble ahead for many people. In addition, for many others the damage has already been done from this recession even though they may not have yet taken steps to put their struggles behind them.

Kathy Hudson and Donato Giovanatto. Continues to go above and beyond the call of duty. Reaching out to the insurance company about the damage to the vehicle. Forcing them to take responsibility.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value As someone who is familiar with the inner workings of the auto insurance industry I can whole heartedly endorse Steven J. Jones and Phillips law group as someone I would want on my side should litigation take place. They handled my case professionally, honestly, and with satisfactory results which I would not have expected without enlisting their help.

Definitely recommend! Awesome

I was recently served court documents that I was being sued from an accident that happened years ago. For someone who has never been through something like this and not familiar with the court lingo or where to even begin, it was very frustrating and stressful. I reached out to a family member who knew Tracy Laskos and the great reputation of Phillips Law Group and within the hours of the initial call for help, I had a direct number to Lead Attorney Nassar. Nassar heard my case and almost instantly put me at ease by explaining the process and how easy it was to handle. Nassar spoke to me like he was a friend, not like I was a client. I am so grateful to Tracy, Nasar and of course my cousin Stephanie for helping out and giving me the direction that I needed to get through this situation. I plan on referring my friends, family and patients that are in need of a personal injury Attorney to Phillips Law Group. Thank you!!
