From your Free Initial Consultation, Mr. Reed and his staff walk you through the steps necessary to file for bankruptcy.

• First, he determines if bankruptcy is even the path to take. Sometimes bankruptcy is not necessary or not an option for your particular situation. If not, he will advise you on other alternatives.
• Once the decision is made to file for bankruptcy, he discusses with you which type makes sense for your situation, Chapter 7 or Chapter 13.
  • A Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing wipes the slate clean, liquidating all of your non-exempt assets, if your situation qualifies. Even though it is liquidation, many assets are exempt, meaning the bankruptcy court cannot take them from you.
  • A Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing helps you reorganize the payments of your debts over a 3-5 year period in a more affordable way, eliminating all other debts, while protecting most or all of your assets.
• He files the petition for your case and prepares you for counseling necessary after the filing is accepted by the court.
• After acceptance, he works with you to make sure that debts don't mount up again.
