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.

Best experience with a lawyer I've had!
We went to a different lawyer before Michael and I had a bad experience. Every time we contacted him he didn't know who we were. We paid half the money up front and they never started any work on our case. Then when we decided we would not be able to pay all the money before they started, they would ...
"I became familiar with Michael's bankruptcy law practice through a mutual business associate. It quickly became obvious that Michael has spent many hours preparing informational videos for potential clients to obtain quality information about the entire bankruptcy process that are readily available on his website. Michael maintains a small office practice that allows him to personally assist each client and help them with a very difficult time in their lives. Watch the videos. He really cares and wants to help. I highly endorse Michael."
