Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Lawyer

Chapter 7 is the most common form of bankruptcy. It is a liquidation proceeding in which the debtor's non-exempt assets, if any, are sold by the Chapter 7 trustee and the proceeds distributed to creditors according to the priorities among creditors established in the Bankruptcy Code. In a nutshell, the consumer can get a fresh start, although he or she could also lose some assets.

As a Chapter 7 bankruptcy lawyer and bankruptcy law firm, we have a good track record of helping consumers keep their homes and their cars. Although past performance is no indication of future success, we have many satisfied clients.

Thorough Investigation for Successful Results

One reason we have a good track record for helping people keep their homes and their cars, is that we are very through in our investigation. We get an appraisal, we check the terms of the mortgage, and we check every exemption thoroughly so there are no surprises later. As a Chapter 7 bankruptcy lawyer, we would not be doing a good job if we placed your house at risk. Our bankruptcy attorney will not file for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy until we’ve done our homework. You should compare this to the advertisements of companies- saying that you do not need a lawyer to file for bankruptcy protection.

A lawyer will sometimes help a business file for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy as a way of freeing the officers of a company from business liability. A business Chapter 7 bankruptcy is essentially a “going out of business" bankruptcy- in this case all assets are sold. We have handled this type of bankruptcy for businesses such as print shops, restaurants and other small businesses throughout northern New York and the Hudson Valley.
