Why A Bankruptcy Law Firm?

When money gets tight, most individuals begin feeling a sense of desperation and stress. Unfortunately, desperate times tend to lead to desperate measures, which typically are not financially sound courses of action. In the face of overwhelming debt, many debtors fall into the trap of making bad financial decisions to alleviate debt. Such decisions include, but are not limited to:

1. Borrowing money from family and friends
2. Writing bad checks
3. Taking out cash advances on credit cards
4. Mistakenly selling assets protected from creditors
5. Liquidating retirement accounts to make bill payments
6. Engaging in fraudulent/illegal activity
7. Securing loans from payday loan companies at interest rates well over 50%

Before any rash decisions are made, it’s best to contact a knowledgeable bankruptcy attorney.

In meeting with an attorney, you’ll be able to walk away with the best course of action completely laid out for you.
