    Fresh Start

    Starting Over

    A fundamental goal of the federal bankruptcy laws enacted by Congress is to give debtors a financial "fresh start" from burdensome debts. The Supreme Court made this point about the purpose of the bankruptcy law in a 1934 decision: It gives to the honest but unfortunate debtor…a new opportunity in life and a clear field for future effort, unhampered by the pressure and discouragement of preexisting debt.

     

    If you decide to file for bankruptcy, federal law requires you to obtain credit counseling, and you must also satisfy a means test. We will be glad to discuss these details at your initial consultation.
