Notorious Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick had to file a Chapter 11 bankruptcy before going to prison back in 2008. While in prison, Vick lost millions in salary and endorsement deals and was chased relentlessly by creditors. However, Vick will soon repay $20 million in debts to dozens of creditors, clearing him of his bankruptcy arrangements. Paying back debts fully in a chapter 11 case is very unusual, but this could be efforts of a rehabilitative man. Since his release from prison, Vick has made a conscious effort to regain his supporters and this was another step in the right direction.
Vick agreed to pay 6.5 million back to the Falcons for the signing bonus he accepted. Further, he owed roughly $5 million to his former agent, and a few million to a bank for real estate loans. Vick had to restructure his contract costing him millions. If you are worried about Vick’s financial position, do not be. He will make a minimum $7 million with incentives clauses that could make him $10 million this year playing for the eagles. Also, he will be endorsing Nike for an undisclosed amount.

Great question. Here are a few reasons:
- 1. Bankruptcy is our sole area of practice. Attorney Wright has over 10 years of experience in the field of bankruptcy and has helped over 1000 people successfully file.
- 2. Attorney Wright has an accounting background that is useful in analyzing complex financial documents. Prior to law school he obtained a degree in accounting from the University of Wisconsin School of Business. He exercised his strong numerical aptitude in the field of accounting, including several years with The Kohler Co., before ultimately deciding to pursue a law degree.
- 3. New clients meet with an attorney during their first visit. We understand your time is valuable. It is important your questions are answered quickly and accurately so you can take appropriate steps to secure a better financial future and eliminate fear and stress.
4. In business, referrals are the highest form of professional compliment. We frequently receive referrals from other lawyers and previous clients.
- 5. Our firm is small which enables us to focus on quality over quantity. We don’t have billboards on the I-10 or banners affixed to public transportation. Our approach is a bit more understated. We care about people and doing things right and it shows in our low employee turnover and positive reviews.
- 6. Perhaps the most important consideration is the cost of filing bankruptcy. We continuously assess our fees to ensure we offer fair and competitive pricing. We want to offer you a deal without sacrificing the quality of your experience.

I called around looking for the right bankruptcy lawyer and came across Benjamin Wright. He personally called me for the consultation seeing how I live in Kingman AZ. He was very helpful from the start and his staff was very friendly and explained any questions I had, sorry for all the questions. I would definitely recommend Wright law offices, and I do!! Thanks for everything, you made what seemed like a hard thing to do simple!! You guys rock!!!
Great lawyer, he really helped my mother out of a jam. She was totally new to bankruptcy and he talked with us for about an hour and a half to make sure she wouldn’t be worried.
Ben is a kind and down to earth attorney. He worked around my busy schedule as a single mom (school, full-time job, and daycare pick up and drop off times). He explained absolutely everything to me and was good about e-mailing. I am writing this review as a THANK YOU.
I had a very positive experience with Attorney Wright. He or his staff returned my e-mails and calls promptly (even after business hours occasionally). His fees were reasonable. He was patient with me when I showed up in court missing an important document. He is aggressive, but fair and nice.
