Austin Personal & Small Business Bankruptcy Lawyer

Using Bankruptcy to Help Individuals and Small Businesses

For small business owners in financial trouble, recently-divorced people, those struggling with illness and medical expenses, and others, bankruptcy can present an opportunity to start over or to reorganize your finances so that you can get back on your feet. It is my job to help individuals and small businesses utilize the federal Bankruptcy Code to their advantage.

As a bankruptcy lawyer, I have guided hundreds of clients through the pre-bankruptcy planning process, and through the successful completion of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or a Chapter 13 bankruptcy.

Small Business Bankruptcy

A significant portion of my work involves helping small business owners come to terms with their financial situation, and taking steps toward a fresh financial start. Some business owners use credit cards to obtain the seed money to start a new business, never envisioning unanticipated problems such as an economic downturn. In Austin in particular, computer and high-tech businesses are suffering, as are local developers, contractors, and restaurateurs.

When you work with me, I will do everything in my power to help you create a solid plan that will help bring you out of debt and get back on the road to financial solvency. Clients find me easy to talk to, attentive, and responsive.

Personal Bankruptcy Protection

  • Was your job outsourced?
  • Were you laid off and forced to take a job for less money?
  • Is the value of your 401(k) nowhere near what it used to be?
  • Have you incurred debt and now have no way to pay it back?
  • Are the payments you are making on your credit cards not even enough to cover the interest you are accumulating each month?

Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy immediately stop all efforts by creditors to repossess cars and foreclose on homes. Bankruptcy stops the ceaseless creditor harassment.

It is my experience that in the overwhelming majority of the bankruptcies filed by individuals, all (or virtually all) of your personal property is shielded from your creditors, and is yours to keep.
