Arizona Unemployment a Predictor of Bankruptcy Increase

Record Unemployment Rates could be a clear indicator of the dark financial days looming.
Tucson bankruptcy attorneyNationally, for the week ending March 28, 2020 there were over 6.6 million unemployment claims filed.  In Arizona, there were 89,100.  Both were record setting numbers.  These numbers are reflective of beforeGovernor Ducey put an April 1st “Stay at Home” order into place.  Next week’s numbers will probably be even higher as the first week of Ducey’s order will be reflected.  Early estimates are claims will be in the hundreds of thousands in Arizona alone next week.
With little relief in site, the financial futures of thousands of Tucson residents hang in the balance. The high numbers of unemployment claims are in direct correlation with the COVID-19 pandemic that has not only impacted Arizona but all of the world. Though roughly 93% of all Tucson residents who have filed taxes will be receiving stimulus aid from the government in the near future.  This much needed money will only go so far when so many Tucson residents are facing job loss and a questionable future.
One of the leading causes of people needing to file for bankruptcy is the loss of a job.  The number one reason that people file bankruptcy is medical expenses.  The current Coronavirus pandemic unfortunately could impact a person’s life negatively through either loss of a job/income, through unexpected medical bills or both.
