While bankruptcy is an important option to consider for many personal debt situations, it's by no means the only approach to resolution of serious consumer financial pressures. Renegotiation, modification, subordination, substitution of collateral and compromise are all tactics short of bankruptcy that can make a positive difference in your situation. Our experience with acute financial difficulties helps us identify and apply whatever leverage you might have to relieve pressure from creditors or tax authorities.
Most of our consumer tax and debt resolution practice involves such matters as the following:
- Advice about your bankruptcy options and your alternatives to bankruptcy
- Resolution of federal, state or local tax problems in or out of court
- Personal liability for business indebtedness
- Personal liability for payroll taxes or other business tax
- Home mortgage foreclosure problems
- Chapter 7 bankruptcy
- Chapter 13 bankruptcy
- Chapter 11 for individuals who don't qualify for relief under other chapters of the Bankruptcy Code
- Advice about life after bankruptcy, including ways to rehabilitate your credit
