No one should have to live with overwhelming debt. If you have lost sleep over mounting bills and angry calls from creditors, it is time to seek experienced and professional help.
Our attorneys at Compassionate Counsel dedicate themselves to helping Arizona clients overcome financial difficulties through bankruptcy and debt settlement. We offer empathetic, no-judgment representation, and you will work directly with our skilled lawyers throughout our handling of your case.

How We Can Help You Fight Consumer Debt
Our number one goal is to provide you with powerful relief that will meaningfully improve your life.

Our firm is also proud to help our local community by offering pro bono and discounted services to the indigent, veterans, military servicemembers, and first responders.
Filing for bankruptcy may seem intimidating, but the process will put a temporary stop to collection efforts and can allow you to discharge substantial amounts of unsecured debt. You also do not need to navigate bankruptcy alone, as our attorneys will serve as your guide and advocate every step of the way. Two major types of consumer bankruptcy are available, and the type you qualify for will depend on your current level of income.
Flexible payment plans are available. Contact us online or call (602) 641-5228 to schedule a free initial consultation to discuss your options.
If you have little to no current income or very little disposable income, you will likely qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy relief. In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, non-exempt assets are liquidated to partially repay creditors. Fortunately, we can help you exempt many of your assets, and many filers lose little to nothing. Once the liquidation process is completed, you will generally be permitted to discharge any remaining unsecured debts. This includes credit card debt, medical debt, personal loans, and unpaid utility bills.
You will likely need to file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy if you have considerable income but still cannot keep up with your bills. In a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you will commit to a reorganization plan that consolidates your debts into a single monthly payment. Your current level of disposable income – what you can currently afford to pay after qualifying expenses – determines this monthly payment amount. Most plans will last between three and five years, and once you have made all payments, you will typically be allowed to discharge any remaining unsecured debts.
Our team at Compassionate Counsel recognizes that bankruptcy is not the right choice for everyone, and we are prepared to assist you with several alternatives. Our lawyers can help you renegotiate the terms of personal loans. We can also fight to obtain a credit card debt settlement by negotiating directly with your creditor card company. Should the situation call for it, we are happy to put a stop to creditor harassment and help you understand your rights under federal law.
