Waiting too long before seeking help for your financial situation can have additional consequences and can make it more difficult to find relief. Taking ill-advised actions to avoid bankruptcy, such as borrowing against a home, pledging assets and withdrawing money from a retirement plan, will likely end up causing more problems than they will solve. Finding responsible solutions for your debt-related problems is important for your long-term financial health. An experienced bankruptcy lawyer can educate you on the best debt relief option to pursue based on your situation.
At Galloway Jefcoat, L.L.P., we represent individuals in Chapter 7 bankruptcy and Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Each of these consumer bankruptcy plans has its own unique advantages and disadvantages. We can help you understand whether to pursue debt relief through Chapter 7 or Chapter 13. Our goal is to help you obtain a fresh financial start. When you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay will be issued to prevent creditors from making further collection attempts or threats to garnish your wages.
Our firm's Lafayette bankruptcy lawyers also represent businesses and small-business owners in Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. In a Chapter 11 bankruptcy, a business that is in debt will immediately stop paying all unsecured debt and will create a plan for debt repayment and reorganization. The main goal of Chapter 11 bankruptcy is to maintain a viable, healthy business.
