Gary R Stickell's Lawyer Endorsements
"Gary is a great lawyer who is both knowledgeable and accessible. He is an asset to both his clients and the Arizona bankruptcy bar."
"Gary is an excellent bankruptcy attorney who not only does a great job for his own clients, but willingly shares his knowledge with other attorneys in Arizona so that the practice of consumer bankruptcy improves across the board."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Over the course of the last 20 years I have followed the career and practice of Gary Stickell with particular interest. I have been the beneficiary of his willingness to share insights, teach, and train. His knowledge of bankruptcy law is second to none. He consistently comes up with unique and practical perspectives to share with his colleagues. I have worked for years with Gary as he has prepared CLE seminars and other educational programs. He knows his stuff. I know first hand how much he truly cares about his clients and their lives. His relationship with the courts, the bankruptcy trustees, and creditors counsel is an incredible resource for his clients. Gary consistently gets things done. He makes big things happen. He is a unique and important part of the consumer debtor field in Phoenix and Arizona. Gary is one of the best bankruptcy attorneys in the State of Arizona. This is how he earned his prestigious Award from the State Bar of Arizona."
"I know Gary to be an extremely knowledgeable and caring bankruptcy attorney. He has many years of experience and has handled all aspects of chapter 7 and 13 consumer cases."
"I am a Managing Attorney for a nonprofit, federally-funded Legal Aid program in Northern Arizona. In October 2011, Gary generously donated his time to give us a training presentation on bankruptcy. His presentation was lively, informative, and very engaging for all of our attendees, who I am sure are now better equipped to incorporate basic bankruptcy knowledge into their practices. Gary's willingness to give of his time makes a real difference in the lives of many of the lowest-income residents of Arizona, and we are deeply grateful for it."
"I have known Gary Stickell for many years. He is a great bankruptcy attorney and a wonderful man. He treats his clients with great respect and courtesy. Gary is dedicated to making sure that his clients are fully represented. Not only does he focus on providing the appropriate advice about bankruptcy, but he also helps his clients understand the issues that arise outside bankruptcy: such as deficiency issues, divorce and credit challenges. He is so committed to making sure that the general public receives good bankruptcy advice that he started a mentoring group for beginning bankruptcy lawyers. The group has grown to 180 members. As a fellow bankruptcy attorney I can recommend Gary without any reservations."
"Gary is one of the most knowledgeable and creative lawyers I know. He is one of the few that I trust enough to refer clients to when I am unable to help them."
