Do I Need a Lawyer

Like many areas of the law, you are not required to have an attorney to file for bankruptcy. However, there are many things that can go wrong if you do not know what you are doing. There are good legal self-help guides (www.NOLO.com). The problem is that even though the bankruptcy is filed using forms that while not simple, could be filled out. The questions use technical language that has legal meaning that may be different from plain English.

There are cases that have interpreted what things actually mean. There is also local custom as to what is proper or not. You need an experienced LOCAL bankruptcy attorney to review these with you. There are questions that are not on the forms, but that need to be asked, otherwise, there can be serious consequences. Most attorneys will give you a free consultation. Do not assume that your case is “easy” or “expensive”. Find out by calling today.

There are both pitfalls and benefits from filing a bankruptcy. A lay person cannot be expected to know all of them. Call or email today to get real answers to your questions.
