Hackensack Bankruptcy Lawyer

Considering Bankruptcy or Other Type of Debt Relief?

Bankruptcy can be a fresh start for you. It can enable you to start over again without debt.

Filing for bankruptcy is not as uncommon as you may think. In fact, in 2010 almost as many people in the U.S. filed for personal bankruptcy protection (approximately 1.5 million) than graduated 4 year colleges and universities in the United States. You undoubtedly know someone who received a fresh start after filing for bankruptcy relief. It has always and continues to provide folks from all walks of life who have fallen on hard times a fresh start.

Filing for bankruptcy relief will put those harassing calls, letters and lawsuits by your creditors, along with the headaches and worries they bring, to an end.

If you are in a situation where your bills are piling up, you cannot see a way to pay them, and you are looking for a solution, bankruptcy may be that solution and certainly an option you should consider.

By paying the minimum monthly payment on most credit cards it would take approximately 22 years to pay off the debt. In most cases, for the amount that a single debtor or joint debtors (husband and wife) pay for their debts every month, debtor(s) can forever be debt free. If you are at risk of losing your home, if you are facing lawsuits by your creditors, or have other financial stresses that you do not know how to handle, it is probably time to consider bankruptcy as a debt relief option.

There are three types of bankruptcy - Chapter 7, Chapter 11, and Chapter 13. Personal Bankruptcy falls under Chapter 7 or 13. Mr. Alster will meet with you personally to explain the details of the bankruptcy process and provide you with answers to all of your questions. Together we will determine which Chapter, 7 or 13, is most appropriate and advantageous to you.

The Right Time to Act

These are hard times for a lot of people across America. Many people are finding out that they do not have the means to pay for the debt that they have accumulated. Often this is because an unexpected event, such as sudden job loss, an illness, or an injury has caused extenuating circumstances and they do not have the savings to be able to handle those expenses. Over half of all bankruptcies in America today cite medical bills as part of the reason that they are in need of debt relief. In helping our clients survive and get a fresh start, not a single client has ever involuntarily lost any of their assets to a creditor.

Other Options May be Available

Bankruptcy is only one of the available solutions to debt relief. Although many individuals may discover that the bankruptcy laws enacted by the federal government will save them from financial ruin and give them a fresh start, there are other cases in which bankruptcy may not the best and certainly not the only legal option. Other types of debt relief include creditor workouts where a payment agreement is worked out with creditors and where the monthly payments are radically reduced, or the possibility of applying for a mortgage loan modification. The most important action to take is to contact a competent attorney to discuss your situation, and get the help you so badly need. With a review of your situation, Mr. Alster can advise you as to what can be done to end the stress and worry that come with overwhelming debt.
