Attorney Information
Overview
My main goal in practicing bankruptcy law is to not only help people file bankruptcies, but to change the way people think about themselves and to build their confidence and belief in themselves. Bad things happen to good people, which is why the bankruptcy laws were created to help people have a fresh start. Bankruptcy laws are in the Constitution and are a fundamental right of the people. The media and the popular belief is that if you declare bankruptcy, then you have failed in life. This is completely untrue. Declaring bankruptcy is essentially a financial decision and does not deem someone as a failure. Only people who give up are failures and declaring bankruptcy is a way to not give up but to start over. I want to help people because I am genuinely passionate about people’s lives and not only their finances but also their confidence and belief in themselves.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
