We have built our success over the years on the firm belief that taking the time to understand our clients' particular situation, needs and objectives, is critical to providing effective legal representation and solutions in the following areas:
- Chapter 7 bankruptcy (liquidation): Also sometimes called the "fresh start" bankruptcy, we represent creditors and debtors in Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings. We work closely with individuals to determine eligibility for Chapter 7 and to file the petition and appear in all court proceedings. For creditors, we assist in filing proof of claims, attacking the petition and objecting to discharges.
- Chapter 11 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy (reorganizations): We work with debtors and creditors in situations where debtors seek to restructure their debt into a plan that allows for repayment over a period of time.

In addition to these areas, we advise government entities that are financially stressed seek debt relief under a Chapter 9 reorganization.
We also provide clients with information on:
