Chapter 7 Representation
People may file Chapter 7 bankruptcy on their own without having to hire a lawyer. However, if you are considering Chapter 7 Bankruptcy or have already done so it is important that you consider all of the advantages of working with an attorney licensed in Maryland for this type of case.
An experienced chapter 7 attorney can save you time and expense while ensuring that your Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing is handled correctly the first time around.
Chapter 13 Representation
Filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy and stopping a foreclosure may seem like two different problems, but in reality they are closely related. Chapter 13 bankruptcy is an important form of debt relief that can benefit homeowners who have fallen behind on their mortgage payments and would otherwise be facing foreclosure.
However, Chapter 13 is not the only available option to stop a foreclosure. In fact, Chapter 13 is one of many choices that Congress has made available for people struggling with debts or mortgages and consulting with an experienced bankruptcy lawyer may make the difference between choosing the right course of action or the wrong one.
Foreclosure Prevention
People who find themselves facing foreclosure may feel alone and out of options. However, there are several ways you can take to protect your home from losing its value or being sold at auction if the bank has fallen behind on payments for property taxes and/or mortgage interest (among other things).
If going through this process seems daunting – knowing exactly what will happen when it begins can make all the difference in making good decisions now so they don’t compound into bigger problems down road!
The Phillips Law Offices can help you decide if reorganizing your finances through a Chapter 13 bankruptcy case or a loan modification with your lender makes sense for you.
Leveraging The Automatic Stay By A Greenbelt Bankruptcy Attorney
If you are facing a court date, the bankruptcy code has a secrete weapon called the automatic stay. The automatic stay prohibits the creditor from pursuing any action against you while your bankruptcy is pending. This can be extremely useful when creditors threaten to garnish your wages, levy your bank accounts, foreclose on a house or repossess a vehicle parked in Maryland.
Debt Settlement Legal Services
Everyone has debt. However, being debt free is a great feeling. Settling debt can bring a sense of relief to the borrower who no longer wishes to be bound by debt payments. There are many benefits that come with debt settlement, and hiring a Greenbelt bankruptcy attorney for debt settlement services is helpful when seeking debt relief.
– Debt settlement has resulted in millions being relieved from their debt loads
– The repayment amount often results in less than what you actually owe
– A legal representative helps by explaining options and creating solutions
– Debt relief attorneys will coordinate the efforts between different creditors
The benefits of settling credit card debt include getting out from under massive interest rates and ridding yourself of those high monthly payments. A reputable law firm, like the Phillips Law Offices can often help you.
Adversary Proceeding Representation
Adversary proceedings are like other lawsuits. Only they involve matters that relate to bankruptcy cases. A trustee or a creditor can file a complaint with the court and then each side will present evidence and argue their own interests. The judge needs to reconcile the claims of the debtor, any listed creditors, and others who were involved in the dispute. Adversary proceedings are explained in Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure Rule 7001.
If your case is challenged by the Trustee you should consult with a Greenbelt bankruptcy attorney experienced with bankruptcy litigation. Not all lawyers who practice bankruptcy law take these types of cases on, and it does require a higher level of legal skill to handle.
