Services My Firm Offers in Berks County

While I can assist you through the bankruptcy process in its entirety and help pursue the debt discharge that you want, I can also work to ensure that all possible alternatives are explored and that you are pursuing the best possible future for yourself and your family. Depending on the situation that you face, you may benefit more from either Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, and it is vital that you understand the differences between the two, as well as the advantages that each offers. When reviewing your specific situation, I can guide you through this decision-making process.

If you are facing foreclosure of your home, then you may be experiencing a great deal of stress and anxiety. While bankruptcy may seem like the only option to protect your future, it is essential for you to discuss your situation in detail with my office so that any alternatives can be evaluated. You may be able to pursue foreclosure defense through extensive investigation into the sale process, as there are often mistakes made when the escrow process is hurried. Depending on the circumstances, I may be able to delay or stop the foreclosure process entirely.

With more than two decades of legal experience and service to the community, I have knowledge of local practice and procedure, as well as good relationships with local judges and law enforcement officials, among others.
