"Arizona Free Bankruptcy Forms"
No one should pay for Arizona bankruptcy forms. Courts provide free forms. However, many bankruptcy software
programs provide much more than forms, including easy editing, error checking, explanations, cites to statutes,
cases and rule requirements, and are updated for compliance with local rules.
| The Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, in Rule 9009, provide "The Official Forms
prescribed by the Judicial Conference of the United States shall be observed and used with alterations as
may be appropriate. Forms may be combined and their contents rearranged to permit economies in their use.
The Director of the Administrative Office of the United States Courts may issue additional forms for use
under the Code. The forms shall be construed to be consistent with these rules and the Code." |

in activities "that are otherwise prohibited by law. including the rules and laws that prohibit the unauthorized
practice of law." The Supreme Court of the State of Arizona has enacted amendments to its Rule 31 governing the
unauthorized practice of law which became effective commencing July 1, 2003. Rule 31 sets forth the general rule
that only an active member of the State Bar of Arizona may practice law in the State. The amendments also create
a limited exception for certified legal document preparers provided that the services performed are in
compliance with State Code of Judicial Administration, Part 7, Chapter 2, Section 7-208.
