Services
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
Chapter 7 bankruptcy eliminates most unsecured debts through asset liquidation. Our attorneys evaluate eligibility through means testing and guide clients through the discharge process. This option stops creditor harassment and wage garnishments while providing a fresh financial start for qualifying individuals.
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Chapter 13 allows debtors to keep assets while repaying debts over 3-5 years. We help clients create feasible repayment plans based on income and expenses. This option is ideal for those with regular income seeking to catch up on mortgage payments or resolve tax liabilities.
Foreclosure Defense
Our firm specializes in stopping home foreclosures through bankruptcy filings and loan modification negotiations. We help clients understand their rights and options under California law. By filing Chapter 13, we can often create payment plans to save homes from foreclosure proceedings.
Debt Relief
We provide comprehensive debt relief solutions including credit card debt reduction, wage garnishment stops, and tax lien resolution. Our attorneys analyze each client's financial situation to determine the most effective debt elimination strategy. We help clients understand both immediate and long-term consequences of different debt relief options.
Creditor Harassment Protection
Filing bankruptcy automatically stops creditor calls, lawsuits, and collection actions. We help clients understand their rights under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Our team provides ongoing support to ensure creditors comply with legal protections throughout the bankruptcy process.
