About Michael
Biography
A little about myself, I have been practicing law for over 18 years. During that time I have seen what the burden of debt can do to individuals and families. If you are buried under a mountain of debt and you don’t think there is any way out. Let me assure you there is. Chapter 7 bankruptcy, Chapter 13 bankruptcy, Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and uncontested divorce is what I specialize in.
When I started this firm over twelve years ago, my goal was to help people better their lives. I want to exceed my clients’ expectations, and guide them through the bankruptcy or divorce process in a low-stress, friendly way that will lead to a higher quality of life. I understand that you are considering filing bankruptcy because finances are tight, and that’s why my fees are typically a fraction of other attorneys in Northern Virginia & Richmond charge.
Call me today for your free no strings attached consultation. We can sit down and see if bankruptcy is the right move for you.
