I'm a Houston bankruptcy lawyer and also a former Texas Judge and Mayor. I used to own one of the largest law firms in the great state of Texas. I now use my extensive legal experience to help consumers who are considering Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Instead of bankruptcy, I deveoloped a viable alternative that helps people resolve their debt obgligations without the permanent, damaging credit history that accompanies bankruptcy.
