Bankruptcy Law

During these difficult economic times, Bankruptcy Law is on the minds of more people than at any time in recent memory. In no era since the Great Depression have more Americans been beset with extraordinary financial difficulties. Fortunately, attorney Robert Nickerson at The Nickerson Law Firm can help you find legal relief and escape the crushing burden of debt.

When confronted by mounting, unmanageable debt, the key is to recognize the problem, evaluate the situation, and then take action to protect yourself, your family, and your assets.

One option is filing for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. In this scenario, which is sometimes referred to as a “straight bankruptcy,” the debtor turns his non-exempt assets over to a court-appointed trustee, who then sells these assets and distributes the resulting proceeds to creditors. Generally speaking, once these funds are exhausted, any remaining debts are discharged, and the debtor gets a financial “fresh start.”

The other Bankruptcy Law option which is most often exercised by those who cannot properly service their debt is filing for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. In this instance, a debtor is given the opportunity, under the supervision of the court, to reorganize his financial affairs. The aim of this arrangement is to formulate a payment plan so that creditors will be paid while at the same time protecting the debtor from foreclosure, garnishment, repossession, or other similar measures.

Few circumstances in life are more difficult to deal with than being faced with insurmountable debt. Let the attorneys at The Nickerson Law Firm use their expertise to put you back on the road to financial stability. If you require assistance in the areas of Chapter 7 bankruptcy, Chapter 13 bankruptcy, cancelling judgments, debt consolidation, debt removal, garnishment retrieval, garnishment canceling, stopping foreclosure, stopping repossessions, or any other debt-related legal matter, call The Nickerson Law Firm at 810-987-3009.
