About Mr. Michael A.
Mr. Michael A. Jones has spent his professional life in the contours of bankruptcy law. He began in business studies and moved into law, bringing an analytical eye to complex financial problems. Colleagues describe a steady, methodical approach. Clients rely on clear explanations and pragmatic advice.
He completed a Bachelor of Arts in Business at Michigan State University. He then earned his Juris Doctor from Arizona State University. Those two degrees inform his work: business training shapes how he reads financial documents, and his law degree supplies the procedural tools he uses in court and at the negotiating table.
His practice is rooted in Arizona. He works as a lawyer at Allen, Jones & Giles, PLC. Over the years at the firm he has handled a range of bankruptcy matters for individuals and businesses. That experience has exposed him to both routine filings and more complex questions about distressed enterprises and creditor arrangements.
Mr. Jones holds board certifications that mark specialized qualifications in his field. He is a Certified Specialist in Bankruptcy Law through the Arizona Board of Legal Specialization. He also earned certification in Business Bankruptcy Law from the American Board of Certification. Those credentials signal additional testing and peer review specific to bankruptcy practice.
In his day-to-day work he represents clients in bankruptcy proceedings, counsels business owners facing insolvency decisions, and advises on the practical legal steps available during financial distress. He handles both debtor-side and creditor-side matters. He also assists clients in evaluating options outside of bankruptcy when those alternatives are viable.
Outside the courtroom he prepares written submissions and negotiates plan terms and settlements. He has experience drafting the documents that parties use to resolve claims and restructure obligations. He takes a procedural, detail-oriented approach to case preparation and stresses clarity in client communication.
Mr. Jones stayed close to the intersection of business and law throughout his career. That background informs how he evaluates restructuring proposals and assesses financial disclosure. He remains in private practice at Allen, Jones & Giles, PLC. His current practice centers on consumer and business bankruptcy matters.
