Chapter 13, or "reorganization" bankruptcy is available to individuals, but not businesses. If you are late on your mortgage and are in foreclosure, you may be able to save your home by filing for Chapter 13. Unless your home has already been sold, it is not too late! Also, in many cases, we can get rid of your second (and third) mortgage(s) to save you even more money. Call us for a FREE consultation today!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
