Macco & Stern
With more than six decades of experience, the bankruptcy attorneys at Macco Law Group, LLP are here to provide positive solutions to your financial challenges. Before filing for bankruptcy, you may feel intimidated or even shame. However, letting go of this sense of resentment and blame could be the solution to your current financial woes.

Filing for bankruptcy, whether as an individual, married couple, or business, can be a highly effective means of regaining financial control of your life, business, or, in some scenarios, both. The process of filing for bankruptcy, and the steps following after, are almost always complicated and confusing for even the biggest finance aficionados.
Services
The attorneys at Macco Law Group, LLP have well over 70 years of experience between them. This includes almost 30 years as partners in our Suffolk County-based practice, focused exclusively on bankruptcy and insolvency matters. Mr. Macco is one of only two Chapter 13 trustees in the Eastern District of New York, giving him in-depth knowledge of consumer bankruptcy from all perspectives.
Chapter 11 bankruptcy, also frequently referred to as reorganization bankruptcy, permits debt restructuring under the United States bankruptcy laws. Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a means of restructuring an entity's affairs, debts, and assets, and it is available to every business and, in some instances, individuals.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy, also known as "a wage earner's plan, " is a type of bankruptcy where a debtor undertakes a reorganization of their finances under the supervision and approval of the federal government. One of the most attractive aspects of Chapter 13 bankruptcy is that the repayment plan provides "regular" income individuals with an opportunity to develop a plan to restructure their debt while retaining all of their property.
The Long Island, NY foreclosure process can be complicated. These challenging legal matters should not be ignored. Banks, as diligent as they may seem, both big and small, sometimes make mistakes. Your experienced and hardworking New York foreclosure defense attorney could investigate and unveil these mistakes.
In addition to our work helping individuals and businesses file bankruptcy, we are well qualified to fight for creditor's rights under the law. Both our law partners, Michael J. Macco and Richard L. Stern, have decades of experience helping creditors prevent losses and recover damages when the bankruptcy system is abused.

After researching my different options, over the past two years, and having no luck or comfort in substantial conversations with any other law firm, I made an inquiry to Cooper Macco’s group. With great professionalism and knowledge, after my consultation, I felt educated in the current laws and my rights. Under his advice and guidance I successfully filed a petition and won, due to his work and knowledge, I have a greater future. His office assistant was a great and knowledgeable liaison, and made the process go smoothly. Grateful to press forward. Thank you, Cooper Macco.

I had closed my business that left me with a large debt. I had met and spoke with Rick Stern several times for a consultation. He never asked for a penny. Every time I called the office he was available to speak. Not only is he a ethical lawyer, he genuinely cares about his clients. The whole process was simple and quick. I more then recommend Rick and his firm if you are in financial distress. He will give you great advice!
