Specialized Bankruptcy Services
CLE Bankruptcy offers comprehensive services tailored to the specific needs of debtors. Their primary areas of practice include:
- Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: Known as ”liquidation” bankruptcy, this process allows qualified individuals to wipe out unsecured debts like medical bills and credit cards, often without losing any property.
- Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: A reorganization plan that allows individuals with regular income to catch up on missed mortgage payments and pay back a portion of their debts over 3 to 5 years, stopping foreclosure in its tracks.
- Adversary Proceedings: Representing clients in complex disputes within the bankruptcy court, such as when a creditor challenges the discharge of a debt.
- Debt Relief Counseling: Advising clients on alternatives to bankruptcy and helping them rebuild their credit score after filing.
The attorneys at CLE Bankruptcy are known for their empathy and their ability to explain complex legal concepts in simple terms. They offer free initial consultations to review your finances and determine if bankruptcy is the right choice for you.
