Call for a consultation. If your legal issues are outside of our areas of expertise, then we will gladly refer you to organizations and/or other professionals who may be able to better serve your legal services needs.
We recognize that each person’s financial circumstances and goals are different, therefore our experienced attorneys carefully consider all of the facts and circumstances of each case and evaluate all of the available options with our clients. Often times, we identify options which avoid the need for filing a bankruptcy. When bankruptcy is the best option it does not result in the permanent reduction of your credit score and end of your financial life. Instead, filing a bankruptcy may be the fastest path toward a higher credit score and a new financial beginning - a Fresh Start!
Our bankruptcy lawyers will assist you with:
creating payment plans
resolving foreclosure matters
implementing workout strategies (negotiating debt settlements)
managing litigation matters
We provide emergency protection from creditor actions to stay:
real property foreclosure
paycheck garnishment
bank account levies by judgment creditors, the IRS and the CA FTB
We can help you start a new financial life.
