Philadelphia Area Bankruptcy Attorney
Deciding to file bankruptcy is difficult in any circumstances. When the decision is complicated by a pending divorce or the failure of a small business venture, it is important to seek out knowledgeable advice and counsel from an experienced bankruptcy lawyer. At our law firm, we urge people to take the time to understand their options under the bankruptcy law.
In addition to providing advice about bankruptcy, our firm assists clients with the process. Whether you file for bankruptcy under Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 of the Bankruptcy Code, our law firm can assist you. Attorneys at the Law Offices of Maribeth Blessing, LLC, are sensitive to the impact of bankruptcy on individuals or businesses. We counsel clients about life after bankruptcy and help them focus on the future.
Our Bankruptcy Practice
Our lawyers handle all aspects of Chapter 7 & 13 bankruptcies, including:
- Completing filings and petitions
- Attending hearings
- Scheduling required credit counseling and financial management courses
- Notifying creditors who violate the automatic stay and continue to harass our clients
The Impact of Bankruptcy on Divorce and Other Family Law Matters
We also work with our family law clients; a bankruptcy filing by one spouse is frequently part of divorce proceedings. We advise clients that bankruptcy will not wipe out child and spousal support obligations. However, we also tell them a bankruptcy filing submitted before a divorce petition may affect property division.
Why a Lawyer is Necessary
If you are contemplating divorce and bankruptcy, it is critical to have an attorney knowledgeable about both aspects of the law. At our law firm, our family law attorneys understand bankruptcy, and our bankruptcy lawyers understand family law. This combination allows us to pursue the most favorable outcomes possible in both types of legal proceeding.
