Services
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
Chapter 7 bankruptcy provides debt relief through asset liquidation for qualifying individuals. This process eliminates most unsecured debts while protecting essential assets. Our experienced attorneys guide clients through the entire process from initial consultation to discharge, ensuring compliance with federal bankruptcy requirements while maximizing debt relief opportunities.
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Chapter 13 bankruptcy establishes structured repayment plans for debtors with regular income. This option allows clients to retain valuable assets while repaying debts over 3-5 years. Our team develops customized repayment strategies that meet court requirements while addressing individual financial circumstances, including mortgage arrears and tax obligations.
Stopping Foreclosure
Bankruptcy filings immediately halt foreclosure proceedings through automatic stay protections. We help clients evaluate options including loan modification, debt discharge, or repayment plans. Our attorneys work directly with mortgage providers to negotiate solutions that preserve homeownership when possible.
Stopping Wage Garnishments
Filing bankruptcy stops wage garnishments immediately through federal automatic stay provisions. We help clients understand their rights and develop comprehensive debt resolution strategies. Our team coordinates with employers and creditors to ensure immediate cessation of unauthorized deductions.
Resolving Tax Issues
We help clients address back taxes, penalties, and IRS liens through bankruptcy solutions. Our attorneys evaluate eligibility for tax debt discharge or structured payment arrangements. We work directly with tax authorities to resolve outstanding obligations while ensuring compliance with bankruptcy court requirements.
