Personal Bankruptcy

Anyone can experience hardship and become trapped in a cycle of debt. Filing for bankruptcy can provide you with a way to get out of debt and break the cycle for good. If you choose Chapter 7 bankruptcy, your non-exempt assets may be liquidated to pay back your creditors in part, but then the rest of your debt will be discharged immediately. If you choose Chapter 13 bankruptcy, your assets will not be liquidated, but you will be put on a repayment plan for the next three to five years. Most of your disposable income will go towards repayment. At the end of the repayment term, the rest of your unsecured debts will be discharged.

Business Bankruptcy

Business bankruptcy can provide you with a way to save a struggling business or efficiently reorganize a corporation that is in debt. If you plan to keep your business open, Chapter 13 or Chapter 11 bankruptcy can allow you to repay your debts in part at a manageable rate over the course of a few years. If you are closing your doors, Chapter 7 bankruptcy can help you use your business's assets to pay back some of its debt before the rest is discharged.

Bankruptcy in Special Circumstances

There are a variety of legal issues that can make a bankruptcy case more complicated. Our experienced multidisciplinary attorneys can help with:

DUI and Traffic Crimes Defense

A DUI conviction can be very costly, financially and otherwise. Fortunately, there are a lot of steps an experienced criminal defense lawyer can take to help you. Requesting an MVA hearing may allow you to avoid a driver's license suspension or get a restricted license. Other common defense strategies include questioning your BAC test results or showing that the traffic stop itself was unconstitutional. We are experienced in representing people charged with repeat DUIs, and we can also help with other traffic crimes, such as driving without a valid license.

Family Law

Family law cases can be life-altering. Our attorneys understand the impact of getting divorced or creating a new child custody plan. We will advocate for a fair division of marital property and do all we can to protect the bond you have with your children. We are highly experienced in helping clients manage marital debt during a divorce.

Most people who get divorced today reach divorce agreements out of court through mediation or negotiation. This approach offers several advantages, such as allowing you to create a highly customized divorce agreement and being faster than divorce litigation in most cases. We can advise you on the best ways to resolve your case successfully so that you can move forward with your life.

Business Law

Our attorneys are here for entrepreneurs from the day they begin taking concrete steps toward opening a new business to the day they close or pass on their company to new leadership. We can help with business formation, succession planning, employment law, contract drafting and review, civil litigation, and more. You can rely on us for your business law needs.

Estate Planning

Business owners, families, and others will need to make sure they are prepared for the future. Our lawyers can assist with wills and estates, helping to ensure that you take the correct steps to create a comprehensive estate plan that will protect your assets, make sure your property will be distributed correctly, and address other concerns related to your medical care and finances.

Personal Injury

When you have been injured because of someone else's negligence, you can take steps to recover financial compensation that will address the damages you have suffered. Our attorneys can assist with personal injury cases involving car and truck accidents, slip and fall accidents, and other situations involving serious injuries or wrongful death.
