Overcoming Debt Through Bankruptcy

It's okay to file for bankruptcy. Bankruptcy is a solution — not a catastrophe. Many people who file for bankruptcy do not have to surrender any assets, including their house and car, depending on value. The two types of individual bankruptcy are Chapter 7 and Chapter 13.

If your wages have been garnished, if your creditors call you constantly, if your debt keeps you awake at night, then understand that the bankruptcy system was created for people in just your situation. Learn more about how bankruptcy will affect your life.

Get Educated About Personal Finance

"If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime."

In my office, I do more than just file motions for bankruptcy to get my clients' debts discharged. I am also a teacher. I counsel my clients and educate them about how to avoid common pitfalls and set a path for financial stability and prosperity in the future.
