Santa Fe Bankruptcy Attorney
No one can plan for their financial future when they are facing a never-ending burden of debt. If you are being harassed by creditors, threatened by lenders, and/or facing eviction from your apartment or foreclosure on your home, there is a way out!
Bankruptcy is an effective tool for helping individuals and families get themselves out of debt. As a skillful and experienced bankruptcy lawyer, I have helped thousands of people—just like you—ease their financial burden through bankruptcy. Speak directly with me today! I can help you through this difficult financial ordeal by providing you with the sound legal advice and support you need to turn your life around.
Types of Bankruptcy
Following the new changes to the bankruptcy code, filing for bankruptcy has become more difficult and complicated. To protect your best interests, obtain a competent bankruptcy lawyer who can help you navigate the complications inherent in the bankruptcy code. There are two types of consumer bankruptcy (Chapter 7 and Chapter 13). I will evaluate your financial situation and determine which type of bankruptcy you are eligible to file.
Since not everyone qualifies for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, speak with me—an experienced Santa Fe bankruptcy attorney—for help determining your Chapter 7 eligibility. If you do not qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, I will help you through the process of filing Chapter 13. As an experienced bankruptcy lawyer, I have an intimate knowledge of New Mexico bankruptcy laws and will guide you through the process of reorganizing your debt through a Chapter 13 plan that can ease your financial difficulties.
Many people often worry about losing their property when they file for bankruptcy. In the vast majority of cases, people do not lose any property at all. They have adequate exemptions to protect their house, their car, or their retirement funds.
Whether you qualify for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13, I will help you protect your best interests during your bankruptcy filing. With my knowledge of consumer bankruptcy law, I will inform you of your eligibility and your options while helping you make key decisions that will affect your financial future.
