Salt Lake City Bankruptcy Lawyer

Overview

I have been a consumer lawyer since 1992, with an emphasis on consumer and small business bankruptcy and defending consumers against illegal debt collection activity.
I live in Utah and manage Blue Bee Bankruptcy Law in Salt Lake City, and I also manage Parker & DuFresne, P.A. in Jacksonville, Florida. Over the 26 years of running consumer law firms, I came to understand that these are not law firms at all. They are consumer satisfaction companies that provide excellent legal representation to consumers and small businesses. Client satisfaction is our #1 goal. It is so important, as a matter of fact, that we publish a Statement of Client Rights right on the website, and we expect our clients to hold us to high standards.
I have been recognized by the legal community as among the top lawyers in America, and I've been recognized by the business community as an outstanding leader in business. Most important to me, I am continually recognized by my clients as a complex problem solver who cares about the struggles of the middle class generally, and each one of them specifically.
More and more, it seems like this country cares less and less about the working middle class. We just want to live happy, peaceful lives and raise our children to appreciate hard work and humility. But, it just seems like we can never make enough money to get ahead. Seriously, what happened?
I want my clients to entrust me with their financial burdens and let me help them turn things around. I want them to sleep at night.
This doesn't just mean eliminating debt in bankruptcy. It means rebuilding credit and creating productive habits for becoming self-reliant.
Call me, and let's talk about how we can turn things around.

I would recommend Blue Bee Bankruptcy and Chip Parker to anyone considering a bankruptcy. Their interactions are extremely professional, they respond to questions promptly for whatever you need, and they keep you informed every step of the way through the process.

I am extremely grateful to them, and would advise anyone considering a bankruptcy filing to list this office as their first choice. Thank you very much for your time and attention.

Chip Parker and his paralegal Sandy were fantastic to work with for preparing my bankruptcy filing. Like most people in this situation, I was really nervous and clueless on how to navigate bankruptcy. I chose Blue Bee Bankruptcy Law after reading reviews and my experience was just as expected! Chip and Sandy are experts in bankruptcy and were able to explain everything as they were happening in terms I could understand. I was able to email them whenever I had a question and they were prompt at responding. Chip was proactive in preparing me for the 341 meeting (can be very nerve-wracking for people), called me before and after . The meeting went smoothly thanks to Chip. I would highly recommend choosing Blue Bee for preparing your bankruptcy case. Thanks for everything! Now I can have a fresh start after the past 3 years of difficulties in my life.

Chip Parker and his paralegal Sandy were great in helping me file my case. I was very hesitant about the process but after speaking to Chip he eased my mind. The consultation addressed all my concerns and the email I received after the consultation was a great source of information. Sandy was very responsive and was clear on what was needed to file. There was no back and forth and communication was effective. I knew exactly what would happen in the entire process and was assured that my case would be processed on time.

Chip and his paralegal Sandy are by far the best legal team I have ever worked with. Filing for bankruptcy can be a difficult and stressful process (and even more so if you are being garnished) however Chip and Sandy took care of everything and made the whole process as simple and stress free as possible. If I had any questions they were very responsive via email, text and phone calls. If you are like I was and reading these reviews to help you decide which attorney to hire then trust me, you have found the right place.

If you are at a point where you are considering filing for bankruptcy, then you probably need to. Blue Bee is a small but experienced firm. Bankruptcy obviously is not fun but I felt valued as a client and they seem to enjoy the work they do. From my initial consultation with Chip Parker I knew I would be in good hands. He very clearly explained everything from the types of bankruptcy, the processes for filling for each and the fees that Blue Bee would charged, and there was no pressure or hard sell. The most important part of filing for bankruptcy is being prepared for the 341 meeting. Sandy Carpenter, the paralegal, is a pleasure to work with and did an excellent an meticulous job helping me getting all my statements and forms together. If I had any questions or concerns, she would get back to me in a very timely manner. I felt completely prepared and confident going into the 341 meeting. The fees they charge are straight forward and not confusing. I can't recommend Blue Bee highly enough!

Chip Parker and his firm are the pinnacle example of ethics and care. I had several consultations with other highly-rated firms. None have gone as above and beyond as he and his team. It was clear to me, with how carefully he reviewed my case and the circumstances surrounding it, that I was in good hands. He addressed all my concerns and educated me on the complicated judicial processes. And just to show how much he cares, at gratis, he even offered and prepared a detailed answer to the court for our use. I am thankful to have found him and am more than happy to recommend his services!

I’ve never filed bankruptcy and so I knew nothing about the process or what to expect. I knew I wanted a lawyer that would actually help me. Someone who I felt I could trust to do the best job that they could. Not just take my money and never respond to me. I was SO scared to go through this process that I put it off way longer than I should have. But after working with Chip and Sandy I wish I would have done it sooner. Every time I had a question I could email Sandy and she would respond super quickly. They made the process SO easy and were there to answer any questions I had, whenever I had them. Blue Bell Bankruptcy is fantastic! If your trying to find a good, helpful, and caring lawyer to help you through this scary time, look no further you found them! They went above and beyond all of my expectations. Chip and Sandy for the win!

This past spring I needed a bankruptcy attorney. Online reviews overwhelming favored ,Blue Bee Bankruptcy Law with Chip Parker. My recent experience with Chip and Sandy confirm the online praise. From the first phone call with Chip, I could tell he was a knowledgeable, caring professional. Not only did he apply his vast experience to my case, he made the process as easy as possible. Both Chip and Sandy treated me with respect and always answered my questions clearly and quickly. They also calmed my fears. I couldn't have found a more stellar law firm to represent me. They even offer a credit rebuilding course at the end. I am thankful for Chip and Sandy and all the positive reviews that led me to them.

I highly recommend using Blue Bee Bankruptcy, it is so scary and uncertain when filing a bankruptcy but I felt completely at ease with Chip and Sandy. They made the process as simple and easy as possible. If I had questions about paperwork (which was rare because they lay it out step by step) they answered in a timely manner. If any possible issues arose they contacted me immediately and explained the situation and possible outcomes but also offered advice and solutions. Their process offered everything I needed to file and how to begin to rebuild after. I wouldn’t let anyone I know needing this service use anyone else. Thank you Chip & Sandy!

They genuinely want you to be as informed and prepared as you possibly can be either when it comes to filling out the mountain of paperwork and those PHd level questions or easing your fears and anxiety when it’s your turn for the creditors meeting. If your on the fence as to which firm is the best and can’t decide truly look no further then Blue Bee

I got divorced two years ago and have unfortunately been in and out of the court system since my divorce was finalized. I finally reached a settlement but felt I needed some more answers to questions that my divorce attorney could never provide me. I found Chip Parker on google and he returned my call the same day I reached out. The very first conversation I had with Chip was the most incredible and enlightening conversation I have ever had with an attorney!! First, he was kind and not abrasive in any manner. He gave me more information in our first conversation than I received from my divorce attorney in over two years! Chip alleviated so much of my stress, worry and concern. A month later I called Chip again and he was incredible to work with! Again, he returned my phone calls, emails and treated me with so much respect! Chip also set me up with his program to help me build my credit score and it has been so helpful. I cannot speak more highly of what a relief it was to work with Chip Parker after the ordeal that I have been through.

I met with Chip Parker because I was ready to file a bankruptcy in Salt Lake City, Utah, to stop debt collectors from harassing me. After we discussed my financial situation in detail, Attorney Parker actually told me I didn’t need to file bankruptcy! Because my debts are beyond the statute of limitations and because only one creditor was actually showing up on my credit, he suggested other strategies besides a Chapter 7 to stop the harassment. As it turns out, what I really need to do is build my FICO credit score, and Chip agreed to help me for free. His law firm, Blue Bee Bankruptcy Law, has enrolled me in their credit rebuilding program. I’ve had a tough time, and it feels good that someone would offer to help me for free. If you want to talk to an honest lawyer who won’t judge you, I recommend Mr. Parker.

Blue Bee and Chip Parker is who you want representing you. Honestly, I don’t have a personal relationship with him and there is no bias in my review. I can only speak from experience hiring the firm. This firm is quick to respond, honest, and straight forward. You will know immediately if you have a case or not. What else can you ask for?

Chip Parker is the first attorney I have worked with that truly has passion for what he does. He is not about hourly fee’s/rates. Best part is he gives it to you straight and tells you if you have a case or not. I truly feel he had my back throughout the process. The law field needs more Chip Parker’s in it.

Wow!! I saw a lot of great reviews for this law firm prior to contacting them directly and now I find myself writing a review. Chip and his staff responded quickly to my initial inquiry. This was wonderful considering I had tried to contact some other attorneys to no avail. Chip was very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable over the phone. He not only took his time explaining a clear direction in handling my issue, but get this he offered me FREE assistance moving forward!! Who does that these days? Chip's 28 year experience shows with his past clients and now currently. I would recommend this law firm to friends, family, and anyone requiring legal help. Thanks Chip, I'm grateful! Keep paying it forward ;-)

I am so happy I chose Blue Bee Bankruptcy Law to help me with my financial situation. Attorney Chip Parker and paralegal Sandy Carpenter were very helpful and thorough. Chip spoke with me during the process to make sure I understood what was going to happen, and that put my mind at ease. I never had to go to court, and I attended one meeting with the Chapter 7 trustee by phone. I chose to surrendered my car, and Chip’s team even helped me buy a newly used car just weeks after filing my case. It comes with a 100,000 mile warranty, and I’m only paying a low 10% rate of interest! I plan to enroll in Blue Bee’s credit rebuilding program, and once my score recovers, I will refinance my car at an even lower rate. I highly recommend Blue Bee Bankruptcy Law to anyone facing debt problems in Salt Lake City, Utah.
