Comprehensive Bankruptcy and Debt Amortization Services

Filing for bankruptcy is a powerful legal mechanism designed to offer individuals a structured fresh start. Our legal team will handle all interactions with the court, the bankruptcy trustee, and your creditors, ensuring your rights are protected throughout the process. We assist Appleton clients with a variety of financial solutions, including:

• Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: This option allows you to wipe out most of your unsecured debt, including credit card balances, medical bills, and signature loans, in as little as three to four months, often while keeping your essential personal property.
• Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: A repayment plan designed for individuals with a steady income. It allows you to consolidate your debts into a manageable monthly payment plan lasting three to five years, protecting your home from foreclosure and your vehicle from repossession.
• Chapter 128 Debt Amortization: A Wisconsin-specific state alternative to federal bankruptcy that amortizes your personal debt over a three-year period, automatically stopping creditor lawsuits and interest accrual.

Immediate Protection Under Federal Law

One of the most immediate benefits of filing either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy is the 'automatic stay' issued by the federal court. This order immediately stops all collection efforts by your creditors. It halts pending foreclosure sales, stops wage garnishments, stops utility cutoffs, and completely forbids creditors and collection agencies from calling or writing to you. Our aggressive bankruptcy attorneys will stand between you and your creditors, handling all communication so you can focus on rebuilding your financial life.
