Bankruptcy is a federal law designed to protect individuals who have encountered financial difficulty. The filing of a bankruptcy offers immediate relief to a debtor, by prohibiting all collection attempts. Activities prohibited by the Bankruptcy Code include phone calls and letters designed to collect a debt, as well as lawsuits, garnishments, repossessions and foreclosures.
For your convenience, we have provided this online questionnaire to allow our office the opportunity to review your financial situation, and determine if a bankruptcy consultation would be appropriate. A response will be submitted by phone or e-mail within one business day.
Our office does not charge for the initial bankruptcy consultation, and we welcome the opportunity to meet with you in person to determine if a bankruptcy filing would provide an adequate solution to your financial difficulties.All information requested is kept secure and confidential, as required by the rules and regulations of the State Bar of Georgia.

Wage garnishment and bank account garnishment are the two most common methods of collection for a judgment creditor. Ultimately, garnishments lead to a bankruptcy filing, as the loss of funds renders a consumer unable to handle their monthly debts, not to mention pay utilities and other necessary living expenses.
A bankruptcy filing is a public record, and will be listed with the other public records on your credit report, for seven to ten years. Other examples of public records are civil judgments and tax liens. No, the United States Bankruptcy Code does not require that you have an attorney to file a personal bankruptcy.

In a very difficult time Mr. Terry Leiden was more of a friend than a lawyer.
His efforts to get me through, what would be called, an extremely difficult situation, were above and beyond my expectations.
Hanna, and Ashlyn, we’re always available, responsive, and willing to help with questions, and any needs that arose.
I actually miss stopping by the office to see everyone!

Bankruptcy is a humbling, painful and often times frightening process. Upon our first meeting, Zane exemplified campassion and understanding as well as tactfulness and professionalism. He provided the reassurance I needed to overcome this daunting task with confidence. Zane and his staff made the process simple and acted swiftly ensuring that the pressing details of my case were handled in a prompt manner. Today I am debt free and now have the opportunity to start fresh. I am grateful for the support of Zane and his staff.
