College Park Bankruptcy Law Firm
Overview
At The Law Office of Ronald L. Schwartz, in College Park, Maryland, we have the experience to help you through whatever legal issue you face. Whether you are considering bankruptcy* or are facing criminal charges, attorney Schwartz will meet with you personally to assess your case and decide on a way forward.
If you are in financial difficulty, it is important to remember there is a way out – you have options. The worst thing you can do is do nothing. Bankruptcy might appear a drastic step, and you may be concerned about the effect it will have on you and your family. But remember although bankruptcy is not a process to embark on without proper consideration, the rules have been developed to protect individuals from complete financial ruin.
When you file for bankruptcy, the court issues an automatic stay, preventing your creditors from harassing you for payment. In addition, certain types of property will be permanently protected from your creditors.
For many of our clients, bankruptcy provides an invaluable period of relief, enabling them to see things more clearly and plan for the future. At The Law Office of Ronald L. Schwartz, we have helped thousands of people start afresh, without the burden of an unmanageable level of personal debt.
Of course bankruptcy is not appropriate in every case, and when you consult us we will explain the other solutions available to you and whether either of the voluntary bankruptcy mechanisms (Chapter 7 and Chapter 11) is suitable in your case.
Call our law firm now. Attorney Schwartz has been helping people file for bankruptcy for more than 30 years. Many people who contact us are experiencing the legal system for the first time. It is a stressful period. Our lawyers are here to provide the reassurance, support and professional guidance you need.
*We are a debt relief agency. We help people file for bankruptcy relief under the Bankruptcy Code.

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.
