Bankruptcy.
Bankruptcy is a process by which a debtor can obtain relief from his debts, through the courts. This relief may come in a variety of forms, including full or partial discharge of the debt, or the imposition of a payment program consistent with the debtor’s financial means. The most common types are Chapter 7, Chapter 11 and Chapter 13.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Overview:
The filing of a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy petition, sometimes referred to as a “straight bankruptcy,” has one simple goal; Complete release from debt (s). Some of these debts may include credit cards, medical bills, matters of pending litigation and judgments..
The entire Chapter 7 process takes approximately 100 days to complete. Immediately upon filing, phone calls and correspondence from your creditors immediately cease and all collection efforts are halted. Filing is done electronically from the law office as soon as we have completed the Bankruptcy petition. Once the Bankruptcy filing is completed, an Automatic Stay immediately takes effect thereby “freezing” any/all collection action by your creditors. All contact with you by your creditors immediately ceases. This includes telephone calls, correspondence, pending lawsuits and any debt collection activity, such as wage executions. As the Automatic Stay is a legal provision of the Bankruptcy Code, there are no “ifs, ands, or buts” about it. Learn more about filling Chapter 7 Bankruptcy in New Jersey..
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Overview:
A Chapter 13 Bankruptcy petition is filed to protect your assets from liquidation through foreclosure, in the case of mortgaged real estate, and to satisfy your outstanding debts. As with a Chapter 7 proceeding, all creditor collection activity against you ceases as of the date of filing, even a mortgage foreclosure sale. A Chapter 13 petition must be used whenever your non-exempt assets would likely be liquidated to pay your creditors, or when your family income levels exceed the limits set forth in the “means test” calculator.

Debtor Creditor.
Too often, economic difficulties paralyze a business and the inability to make a decision or develop a strategy can make an already bad situation even worse. Businesses may not adequately plan for economic downturns, nor are they always prepared when their customers or suppliers are faced with unanticipated financial hurdles. Our Law Firm is equipped with the experience to counsel clients facing such challenges and to guide them through such times. – Learn More..
Foreclosure Defense.
What we do for the client – Your legal rights is step one. We do a complete forensic audit of your loan and determine your legal rights. We then look at the foreclosure process and determine if you have rights in the way the bank is foreclosing on your home. Then we assert any/all appropriate affirmative legal defenses and use them as leverage to stop the foreclosure process and obtain a modification settlement or some other legal remedy with regard to the mortgage loan.
Mortgage Foreclosure Mediation – Using the many tools available to the homeowner and the lender, our office can mediate your mortgage foreclosure dispute. In many cases, mediation is a better alternative to diving into a complex, expensive, and often difficult foreclosure action. Mediation is also an option to help resolve cases that already are in foreclosure or perhaps already advanced to a sheriff’s sale. After a successful mediation meeting, the homeowner and lender walk away with what they want without having spent the time and expense locked in foreclosure litigation. – Learn More..
