Bankruptcy
We file Bankruptcies for debtors and represent creditors in Bankruptcy proceedings. For those who cannot pay their bills, or who are struggling to meet their financial obligations, we seek to assess your entire situation before recommending whether it's best for you to file bankruptcy soon, or whether there are other options.
We have successfully represented landlords and lenders so that they can continue the eviction, where a debtor has sought the protection of the Bankruptcy Court.
