Protect Your Assets And Get The “Fresh Start” That You Deserve!

If you are drowning in debt with no place to turn, please contact us for a no cost, no obligation, confidential consultation to discuss all your options, and get on the road to the “fresh start” that you deserve.

The principal purpose of the Bankruptcy Code is to grant a “‘fresh start'” to the “‘honest but unfortunate debtor.   

— United States Supreme Court

Perhaps you lost your job, had unexpected medical bills, or trying to make ends meet simply caught up to you.  If so, we have a solution.  The United States bankruptcy code was designed to assist the honest but unfortunate debtor who cannot meet his or her financial obligations with a “fresh start” through bankruptcy.  

While some people might think that there is a “stigma” to filing bankruptcy, or that it is not the “right thing” to do — let us assure you that this is not the case, as many people and companies that were suffering were able to crawl out from overwhelming financial burdens by availing themselves of the protections of the bankruptcy code — including companies that were owned by the President of the United States.  In fact, GM, Chrysler, Kmart, Greektown Casino and the City of Detroit all successfully emerged from bankruptcy.  You can too!

We are not your typical bankruptcy attorneys!  Rather, the Metro Detroit Litigation Group prides itself on taking a holistic approach to analyzing your financial needs before starting a bankruptcy case.  Prior to filing bankruptcy we will meet with you, review your overall financial picture, and then strategize a road back to financial health which may or may not include a bankruptcy case.  This is an important step as, without a strategic plan, you risk losing assets that you didn’t think about and/or risk having your non-filing spouse get sued over joint assets such as your house.

While bankruptcy may seem easy, it is important to hire an experienced bankruptcy attorney to plan your bankruptcy so that you can avoid the traps and pitfalls that may occur along the way and prevent you from obtaining your discharge.  

Unfortunately, too many times we have met debtors who come to us too late — after going to a bankruptcy “mill” who filed a Chapter 7 bankruptcy case without a strategic plan that considered all of the alternatives and consequences, including situations where people unnecessarily lost their homes or the equity in them.  We then have to expend resources to attempt a “glove save” — to the detriment of the person who could have avoided all of the risk and extra expense by coming to us in the first place.

If you want more information on how to get rid of your debts while protecting your assets, please contact us for a no cost, no obligation, confidential consultation to discuss all of your options, and get the process started by crafting a plan that reflects your specific financial goals.
