Bankruptcy
Personal and business bankruptcy under Chapters 7, 11 and 13, and defense of preference and fraudulent transfer claims.
Bankruptcy is not always the answer.
Before you file, we review your debts, income and assets and tell you whether bankruptcy makes sense. Often there are steps you can take without filing. The first meeting is free.
When to call us
- You are behind on your mortgage or facing foreclosure.
- Credit card, medical or other unsecured debt has become unmanageable.
- A creditor has sued you or is calling to collect.
- Your business cannot pay its debts as they come due.
- A bankruptcy trustee has demanded that you return payments you received.
Four ways the Bankruptcy Code can help.
Discharges most unsecured debt. Available to individuals and businesses that cannot pay their current debts.
A three- to five-year repayment plan. Used to stop foreclosure, cure mortgage arrears and pay taxes over time.
Reorganization for businesses, including workouts, restructurings, sales and liquidations.
Defense of trustee demands to return payments received before a bankruptcy filing.
Both sides of the table.
