  1. How to Choose a Good Bankruptcy Lawyer?

  2. Are you undergoing major financial pain? Tried out all possible debt help techniques? But getting no results. The only answer to all your problems is “Bankruptcy”. It is not advised by all financial experts, but when all other options fail, then it is the only option left to make the complicated process less stressful.

  3. What is Bankruptcy? The term Bankruptcy actually means a legal state in which an individual or organization is unable to repay debts to the creditors. It is quite a serious matter and in this situation, there is no option left for a person or business rather than filing a bankruptcy.

  4. Whether it happens to an organization or individual, it is necessary to seek the services of a bankruptcy lawyer who is completely up to date with bankruptcy law and will be able to protect you from the creditor’s appeal. He/she will guide you through the laws and make the most of your bankruptcy claim. In many cases, a lawyer can help save a great deal of your assets from being liquidated.

  5. There are two main types of bankruptcy – Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. A professional bankruptcy lawyer will first analyze your situation, make recommendations, and then help you determine which chapter will best fit your financial situations. With Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you will need to liquidate all of your non-exempt assets in order to pay off your debts. With Chapter 13 bankruptcy, your lawyer will work with you to develop a repayment plan.

  6. Choosing a Bankruptcy Lawyer When it comes to hiring a bankruptcy lawyer, there is a question that comes in everyone’s mind - “how to choose a reputable bankruptcy attorney near me”? Here are some key points to keep in mind when you find a local bankruptcy attorney to help you.

  7. 1. Investigation: Many people often panic when deciding of a bankruptcy lawyer and used to select the very first lawyer from their choice list. But it’s completely wrong. It is advised to conduct a thorough investigation and choose the reputable one who expressly specializes in bankruptcy law. Always find an attorney who has tried his hands in a little of everything and aware of all the latest developments in the area of practice. Also, never forget to involve a background check to ensure that you are making the right decision.

  8. 2. Experience: Never forget to ask for the attorney’s experience. Some people think that an attorney with more years of experience is much better than an attorney with less years of experience. No, it doesn’t matter. The thing that matter is the experience and how much cases he/she has handled successfully.

  9. 3. Word of Mouth: A good bankruptcy lawyer is always well-known among the people or companies that have gotten help from him/her. So, it is important to ask the business that has hired the attorney for filing bankruptcy. It will help you in making the right decision.

  10. 4. Budget: When filing bankruptcy, budget is the key element. Make sure you have understanding of your lawyer’s fees. Actually, bankruptcy lawyer fees depend upon for which type of case you are hiring him/her – for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13.

  11. 5. Don’t Decide on the Last Minute: Sometimes, debtors neglect choosing a bankruptcy lawyer on time. Selecting a lawyer on the last minutedoesn’thelp your case, but makes the things worse. The more you wait, the more your debts will increase. Also picking a lawyer at the last minute will result in the choice of a lawyer who is not too much experienced and with whom you are not comfortable with.

  12. 6. Communication: Before hiring a bankruptcy lawyer, ask yourself whether you feel comfortable in talking with him/her openly or not. The communication quality is vital because if you are not comfortable with your lawyer, how will you disclose that for which you’re worried about.

  13. Hopefully, this will definitely help those people who have filed bankruptcy in finding the right bankruptcy lawyer who will help them live debt free.
