• Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: Known as the ”wage earner's plan,” this option allows clients to consolidate their debts into an affordable monthly payment plan. It is a powerful tool for stopping home foreclosure, vehicle repossession, and IRS tax levies while allowing individuals to keep their property.
• Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: For those who qualify, Chapter 7 provides a path to completely eliminate unsecured debts such as credit card balances, medical bills, and personal loans, offering a true ”fresh start” typically within months.
• Foreclosure Prevention: The firm has a proven track record of helping families stay in their homes. They utilize legal mechanisms to halt sheriff's sales and catch up on missed mortgage payments over time.
• Debt Settlement: In cases where bankruptcy might not be the best option, the team negotiates directly with creditors to reduce the total amount owed and establish manageable payment terms.
