Your Advocate for a Fresh Financial Start

Facing overwhelming debt can be one of the most stressful and challenging experiences of a lifetime. At Miksis Law Firm, we are dedicated to helping individuals and families in the Philadelphia area find relief and a clear path to a brighter financial future. For over 15 years, our firm has focused exclusively on bankruptcy law, providing compassionate, knowledgeable, and effective legal counsel to clients struggling with financial hardship. We understand that financial difficulties can happen to anyone, often due to circumstances beyond their control like job loss, medical emergencies, or divorce. Our mission is to provide non-judgmental and supportive guidance, demystifying the bankruptcy process and empowering our clients to regain control of their financial lives.

Specialized Expertise in Bankruptcy Law

By concentrating our practice solely on bankruptcy, we are able to provide our clients with a superior level of specialized expertise. We are intimately familiar with the complexities of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and are skilled at using its protections to the full advantage of our clients.

• Bankruptcy Lawyers and Debt Relief Lawyers: We are a federally designated Debt Relief Agency. We help people file for bankruptcy relief under the Bankruptcy Code. Our primary services include:
  • Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: Often called 'liquidation' or 'straight' bankruptcy, this is the most common form for individuals. We help clients determine if they are eligible and guide them through the process of discharging unsecured debts like credit card bills, medical debt, and personal loans, providing a true fresh start.
  • Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: Known as 'reorganization' bankruptcy, this is often the best option for individuals who have a steady income but need help catching up on secured debts like mortgages or car loans. We help clients create a manageable 3-to-5-year repayment plan that allows them to keep their valuable assets while addressing their debts.
• Stopping Creditor Harassment: The moment you file for bankruptcy, an 'automatic stay' goes into effect. This powerful legal protection immediately stops all creditor harassment, wage garnishments, repossessions, and foreclosure proceedings, giving you instant relief and breathing room.
• Saving Your Home and Car: We use the tools of bankruptcy to help clients avoid foreclosure and vehicle repossession, allowing them to keep their essential assets and rebuild their lives.
