If I file for an Arizona bankruptcy, can I choose my trustee?

No. Your trustee will be a professional who is appointed to your case by the court. He or she will be in charge of overseeing your case and making sure it is carried out correctly. Any repayments to secured creditors will be sent to him or her to distribute.

It is important to note that a trustee does not take the place of a qualified Arizona bankruptcy attorney. The key difference is that an attorney’s job is to protect your best interests, while a trustee is a neutral third party.
