We Strive To Bring Emotional and Financial Relief to the Individuals and Families We Serve
Millions of individuals and couples file for bankruptcy every day. While you may believe that this speaks poorly of them, at our firm, we do not support that idea. This is especially true in light of the tough economic times our country has suffered in the past decades. Economic crises such a pandemics and recessions can result in job losses and reduction in hours, business failures, expensive relocations, retirement savings losses, and more. Other debtors may have suffered unpredicted illnesses or injuries, putting them out of work while racking up medical bills and other out-of-pocket expenses. Divorce is another factor that can lead to financial duress when households split and lose their combined income. Many factors can contribute to debt overwhelm and the need for a legal solution established by the government, which is what bankruptcy provides.
Our firm is proud to have brought emotional and financial relief to the families we have served. In fact, our work has enabled us to keep families together where marriages were strained due to financial stress combined with credit harassment. In the majority of these cases, bankruptcy relieved them of such pressures and saved their marriage.
