Bankruptcy Courts Remain Open to Honest Debtors Everywhere
Despite the recently enacted changes made to bankruptcy law (which made the process more difficult and costly), bankruptcy courts remain open to provide relief to honest debtors everywhere and from all walks of life. Depending on each debtor’s particular needs and circumstances, proceeding under either of several “chapters” of the federal Bankruptcy Code may be more appropriate than another. A qualified bankruptcy attorney can help you plan and choose the appropriate chapter for your proceeding.
