Facing Bankruptcy? We Can Help.

Overwhelming debt is both a financial and emotional burden. You may feel ashamed or embarrassed, even though your financial problems may have been caused by something over which you had no control. Perhaps you were laid off, you had an unexpected medical emergency, you were in a bad car accident or a divorce changed everything.

It doesn't matter how you got into debt. It only matters that you get a fresh financial start.

1) WHAT IS BANKRUPTCY?

Bankruptcy is a legal procedure designed both to protect an individual or business that can't meet its financial obligations and to protect the creditors involved. To begin the process, proper papers must be filed.

There are specific chapters of the federal bankruptcy law. Proceedings under Chapter 7 (known as straight bankruptcy) involve taking most of the borrower's property.
