The principal purpose of the Bankruptcy Code is to grant a "fresh start to the honest but unfortunate debtor." We are not your typical bankruptcy attorneys! Rather, the Metro Detroit Litigation Group prides itself on taking a holistic approach to analyze your financial needs before starting a bankruptcy case.
Our outside managing partner, James Brown, is a family man with a passion for adventure. He and his wife, Sherrie, love to find new places and have new experiences.

He has been on a bobsled run, learned how to fly a plane, zip lined through the rain forest, attended a Hollywood premier, attended a book signing in Times Square for his part in a book that became a Best Seller, was part of an America's Cup sailboat crew, got to meet Nickelback backstage and has even driven a NASCAR race car and a Zamboni.He has developed a passion for riding motorcycles and loves hitting the open road.
One of my most satisfying moments came early in my career. Six months after vigorously advocating, and ultimately successfully settling, a highly contested case, my opposing counsel called me to tell that he wanted me to represent him in a lawsuit. I told him you're an attorney, you have several children that are attorneys - why do you want me?
Stop your creditors from taking your assets or filing judgment liens against your property. A Chapter 7, also known as a "liquidation" or "straight bankruptcy" is a bankruptcy case that allows you to walk away from and avoid paying many (if not most) of your unsecured, unmanageable debts including credit cards and medical bills without fear that your creditors will later come after to collect it.
Stop the family court from threatening to put you in jail for back alimony or child support payments. Chapter 13 is basically a Federal court-enforced repayment plan where you agree to repay some or all the amounts that you owe over a 3 or 5 year period, depending upon your income.

Unlike a Chapter 7, in a Chapter 13 you get to keep all of your property and, in addition, you also benefit from the automatic stay that stops your creditors from chasing you.

Working with Sandweiss Lawfirm was an impeccable experience! As my husband was facing a 1st degree charge that carried a life sentence, Stewart Sandweiss stepped in with his knowledge and experience and was able to get all charges dropped! My family and I are extremely grateful for a lawfirm that not only cared about their reputation, but cared about our lives! He took his time and made sure that we did not fall into the hands of an unjust system! I’d highly recommend this lawfirm to anyone whose looking for equality and justice in this corrupt judicial system!

In my search to find a law firm to take a case I was dealing with concerning the police and mistaken identity the law firms that I contacted would not take my Case for one reason or another then I happened upon the Sandweiss law firm.

As a result of his knowledge of the law we won that particular case
There have been other cases And matters that he has also represented me In and we have
