Established in 1998, the firm focuses exclusively on consumer bankruptcy, helping clients navigate the complex financial relief systems provided by the federal government.

Comprehensive Bankruptcy Solutions
The firm specializes in the two primary chapters of consumer bankruptcy, providing tailored advice based on each client’s unique financial situation. Practice areas include:
- Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: Known as "liquidation" bankruptcy, this process helps qualifying clients discharge unsecured debts like credit cards and medical bills, offering a true fresh start often within months.
- Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: A reorganization option for those with regular income who want to save their homes from foreclosure or cars from repossession. This involves a court-approved repayment plan lasting 3 to 5 years.
- Foreclosure Defense: Using the automatic stay provided by bankruptcy to immediately halt foreclosure proceedings and give homeowners a chance to catch up on arrears.
- Creditor Harassment: Stopping relentless phone calls and collection letters immediately upon filing.
