No one plans to be overextended financially, especially when he or she has spent a lifetime building toward home ownership, investments and retirement. Unfortunately, even those who have made all of the right moves in planning ahead can face sudden financial stress when medical bills, divorces or unemployment put their well-being at risk.
The St. Louis bankruptcy law attorneys of Karfeld Law Firm, P.C., provide experienced guidance to help individuals throughout the metropolitan area get finances under control.
Attorneys Edward J. Karfeld and Donna L. Karfeld have spent more than 30 years working in various facets of this legal discipline on the consumer bankruptcy, bankruptcy trustee and collections side of proceedings. Their firm grasp of the various issues you face can help you achieve favorable outcomes that protect your assets and your financial future.
Immediate Relief From The Stress Of Overwhelming Debt
Bankruptcy should be used strategically, and not entered into without a thorough assessment of your debts, your assets and your financial hardship. Before you proceed with a debt relief option, you should understand what steps should be taken to protect precious assets like retirement accounts, savings and houses. In many cases, assets like these are exempt, but only if bankruptcy is filed properly with full disclosure in bankruptcy proceedings.
When you file bankruptcy, creditor actions against you are put to an immediate halt (called an "automatic stay"). Wage garnishments, repossession, foreclosure actions and communication from your creditors must go through your attorney.
