The Top Ten Bankruptcy Lawyers in Arizona! Sorted Like Eggs, or Books on Amazon! For My Favorite Price! Finding a Bankruptcy Attorney in AZ. EZ.

By Joseph McDaniel, Esq.

I was recently reminded that finding a lawyer is not as easy as it sounds, when I was asked to find a lawyer who was a specialist in bankruptcy law in Hawaii. And experienced.

Sure, there are lawyers on billboards and on the outside of the telephone book; but you don't find experienced, AV rated, board-certified and AVVO 10 rated Hawaiian bankruptcy specialists on the outside of phone books in Phoenix, Arizona; and I don't trust advertising when I'm searching for a referral. I want actual, factual information-like substances, you know?

But if you want to find a lawyer by looking in a phone book, you go, boy!

On the other hand, pretend that you want to find the top ten best credentialed, best experienced, best loved by their clients and best credentialed bankruptcy lawyers anyplace, not just Arizona.

And pretend that you don't want to pay for that information.

And pretend that you want the process to be easy. And you want finding the best bankruptcy lawyer for your particular problem to be free for you, as well. And you want the process of finding the perfect bankruptcy lawyer for you, personally, to be really, really fast, also.

And maybe you want to sort the lists of bankruptcy lawyers, for location, client ratings, or overall rating as a bankruptcy lawyer. Or maybe you want to find all the lawyers in Phoenix, Arizona named Smith who are board-certified bankruptcy attorneys, because you only trust bankruptcy lawyers named "Smith".

So you stumble on AVVO. A beautifully designed, brilliantly executed, free online lawyer directory.

And you press one button, to sort for the top ten bankruptcy lawyers in Mesa, Arizona by client ratings. And you press a different button to search for the top ten bankruptcy lawyers in Scottsdale, Arizona by "AVVO Rating", a number given to every lawyer by an unbiased computer algorithm. Or you can search for top ten bankruptcy lawyers in Phoenix, Arizona by "best match".

I confess I don't fully understand that button, but I'm not sure I care.

But the overall result is that you find what you're looking for: first, fast and free. My Favorite Price!

And after you find your top ten bankruptcy lawyers, or your top five bankruptcy lawyers, or your top one hundred bankruptcy lawyers, you get to compare them like watermelons at the supermarket (and I know a lot of people who like the idea of thumping attorneys, you know?).

Now, I love another lawyer directory, which is Findlaw, because of the wonderful customer service. And Martindale has a rating system of its own, which has been around for a long time.

But AVVO sure is fast, free, comprehensive, unbiased, and easy to use.

And because I'm ol...o...oollll....no longer young, I really like computer stuff that's easy to use.

p.s. AVVO generates a rating for lawyers by using a secret computer algorithm, which takes into account all the information their computer can find about a given lawyer. The AVVO rating system has been very nice to me, and that could be one reason I like AVVO so much; but I don't think so. I think I like it because it is such a useful tool for consumers, sophisticated or unsophisticated, who are trying to track down a lawyer of any kind, not just a board-certified bankruptcy lawyer in Arizona!

NOTHING HERE CONSTITUTES LEGAL ADVICE RE A CHAPTER 7, CHAPTER 13, CHAPTER 11, OR CHAPTER 12.
