We focus our bankruptcy practice on Chapter 7 liquidation proceedings and Chapter 13 personal debtor reorganizations.
When you come to us for bankruptcy counsel, Our bankruptcy lawyers carefully examine your financial situation, determining first whether you qualify to seek to permanently discharge debts through a Chapter 7 filing. If you meet the requirements of the bankruptcy law’s “means test,” we’ll explain what debts can and cannot be discharged in bankruptcy, as well as what assets may be exempted from a bankruptcy sale. We help businesses and individuals complete the process for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition.
If, however, you don’t qualify to file for Chapter 7, or you would rather try to pay your creditors off over a three-to-five-year period, we can guide you through the Chapter 13 reorganization process, an option open only to individual debtors (and not companies of any kind.) We will work directly with you to put together a plan of reorganization that will be acceptable to your creditors. Our bankruptcy attorneys will handle all filings, and will be your voice in all hearings or meetings called by the Bankruptcy court.
We accept all major credit cards and will make home and hospital visits in NJ & PA. Under appropriate circumstances. Contact our bankruptcy attorneys online or call us at 856-424-6400. Evening and weekend meetings can be arranged upon request.
