Bankruptcy is a complex process that involves a great deal of legal paperwork, timelines, and coordination with the case trustee, court, and creditors. Attempting to file without the benefit of an experienced bankruptcy attorney could result in costly delays and errors. Fairbanks Fletcher Law PLLC is a full-service bankruptcy law firm serving individuals and business clients throughout upstate New York.
Chapter 7 is designed for people who are having financial difficulties and are not able to re-pay their debts. Under Chapter 7, you can exempt, or keep, certain of your assets under New York law, or, if you have not lived in New York for the past two years, under the state's exemption law that applies to your case.
Chapter 11 is designed primarily for business reorganization, but is also available to consumer debtors. Its provisions are quite complex. In the vast majority of cases, Chapter 11 is impractical and too expensive for most consumer debtors. If you need a bankruptcy attorney in upstate New York, contact Fairbanks Fletcher Law PLLC today to get assistance obtaining a fresh start.
Chapter 13 is a valuable tool that lets individuals catch up overdue mortgage or car payments, taxes and domestic support obligations. It also applies where you have the ability to repay some or all of your debts over time. There are debt limits for secured and unsecured debts that could prevent you from qualifying for a Chapter 13; however, those limits are high.
We offer many options when you need help with consumer credit issues. Most commonly, people come to us when they need debtor representation in defense of creditor lawsuits. If you are being sued by a creditor, we want to help you get the legal advocacy you are looking for. Sometimes these are cases that can be settled out of court, and other times they go all the way through the legal system.
