Your best choice for a highly skilled and professional bankruptcy attorney in Southern Arizona (five stars)

I most highly recommend bankruptcy attorney Lisa C. Thompson. I discovered her book, "Arizona Legal Forms: Debtor-Crediitor Volume Three" when visiting the law library at the University of Arizona campus. When I elected to declare bankruptcy, I chose her firm due to her complete understanding of bank...ruptcy law in Arizona, and I can say that I made a most excellent choice. Besides her dedication and knowledge, Ms. Thompson turned out to be a wonderful human being who understands the emotional and mental anguish of bankruptcy, and knows how to help you through each (sometimes painful) step of the process with minimal pain and suffering. Her legal guidance, skill, advice and support have been top notch, and I would not ever hesitate to recommend her to anyone in the unfortunate position of bankruptcy. Her legal team and associates are also completely professional and capable, too. My highest recommendation to Thompson Law Group of Tucson, Arizona.

Friendly, knowledgeable, helpful

I hired Lisa Thompson to take care of my bankruptcy after she was recommended by a friend who had nothing but praise for her. She is a very friendly person in general. When I have legal questions, she is able to explain them simply. She seems pretty laid back while in her office(which is nice), yet v...ery professional and super knowledgeable when something needs to get done. I would absolutely recommend her to someone else and would have no issue seeking her help again.

Best lawyer in town

When I started with the bankruptcy I started with a different attorney and he was a total joke he had referred me over to Lisa Thompson and that was the best decision I ever had was to go with Lisa and Shanna and I I have never had the experience that I have had with these two women they will help yo...u with anything and everything they will answer all of your questions they will make this process for you the easiest that you’ll ever have and this is a very scary process for a lot of people let alone a single mom so if you have any reservations on who you should see I would give Lisa and Shanna a call and go in and meet the two of them because again they are the best and they will take their time with you they will ask the questions that need to be asked for you to get everything that you need to have done and done correctly the first time and they will answer your question as many times as you need until you have that that question answered in your head the way you need to have it so again if you’re looking for a great great team to help you with your bankruptcy This is the team that you want so go ahead and do give them a call because they are the women for you.

James from Tucson

Lisa is so amazing. She has been an absolute beacon of light in a dark time in our lives. Lisa helped us and held our hands trough each and ever step of the process of filing our Bankruptcy. She has been with us before, during and after the filing. She has helped up understand the process, our rights... and options. She keeps us very well informed as to what is going on and what is needed of my wife and I. I highly recommend Lisa without hesitation.
