In honor of National Celebrate Pro Bono week, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona recognizes the exceptional commitment and efforts of bankruptcy attorneys and their staff in our district who assist self-represented parties. The District of Arizona has one of the highest self-represented filing rates in the nation. Pro bono volunteers help those debtors and creditors navigate through the complicated bankruptcy system. These attorneys greatly benefit the Court and all its participants. Special congratulations to April Maxwell , 2024 winner of the Honorable Sarah Sharer Curley Self Help Center Award, and Michael McGrath, 2024 winner of the Eileen W. Hollowell Pro Bono Award. This is the Court’s twelfth year recognizing bankruptcy attorneys who give back to the community. The Court thanks each and every one of the volunteers for their continued support in assisting self-represented parties in our district.
