Bankruptcy

Apparently, All Arizona Bankruptcy Lawyers Are Kind, Compassionate, Respectful, Dedicated, Experienced, Knowlegeable, Talented, Caring, and Honest!

By Joseph McDaniel, Esq.

Is anybody who practices bankruptcy law in Arizona really as nice as they sound on their Arizona bankruptcy attorney websites?

Could anybody who practices bankruptcy law in Arizona be as nice as they sound on their Arizona bankruptcy lawyer websites?

I mean, based on their paid advertising websites, all bankruptcy lawyers in Arizona have the following benevolent personality characteristics: they are kind, compassionate, respectful, dedicated, aggressive (no particular concern for consistency, would be my guess), experienced, respectful, knowledgeable, talented, caring, responsive, honest, and...what, thrifty and brave? And modest?????

Eagle Scouts don't have all those characteristics, and even St. Francis would have been hard pressed to claim all that without gagging!

I will tell you in advance, I am not that nice. Especially not at the end of a twelve-hour day on a Friday. I do the best I can to get a good result for all of my clients, and I try hard to return my phone calls within 24 hours, or to have one of my troops return them, but I am not a Saint on Earth, nor am I the Second Coming of any Messiah of any religion whatsoever.

Perfect? Puh-leeeze!

I will admit that on a good day I have moderately good personal hygiene.

But do I have a full-on saintly personality? Uh, not after I get to talk to opposing counsel twenty times a day!

I just do the best I can on any given day, same as everybody else.

p.s. Are You A Non-Judgmental Bankruptcy Attorney in Arizona?

No, actually; when I talk to somebody who has more than a million dollars in unsecured debt, I can't help but think, "very impressive"!
