Why You Should Hire a Bankruptcy Attorney



If you think to fill Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, it is important that you seek representation from a qualified bankruptcy attorney. The bankruptcy procedure can be complicated and mistakes can result in serious consequences to your future. Just like all legal matters, bankruptcy can be quite difficult to manage without proper legal guidance. For this reason, people who are considering filing for bankruptcy are encouraged to retain the services of a qualified bankruptcy attorney.
A good bankruptcy attorney is a great investment for a better future. We strongly encourage people to save money and act responsibly with their expenditure. Hiring a bankruptcy attorney is not the time to cut corners on costs. You wouldn't hire the cheapest doctor in town to perform your heart bypass surgery - don't use a non-lawyer document preparation company or an unqualified attorney to represent you in bankruptcy just to save a few dollars.
There are other reasons why you should hire a bankruptcy attorney:
  • When you file for bankruptcy, you must complete extensive paperwork including petitions and schedules. This process can be very arduous. Any mistakes that are made can be very costly. An experienced attorney can assist you with the process and prepare all of the required paperwork for you.
  • Creditors or lenders sometimes challenge the bankruptcy petition or suggested repayment plan. When this happens, you need a litigator on their side who is not only aggressive, but is also a skilled negotiator.
  • You may not fully realize what you are getting into. When you work with a qualified attorney, you are provided with the necessary resources, information and guidance to help you make informed decisions and have a solid understanding of the liquidation process.
  • A lawyer will protect your interests and legal rights so that you can regain your peace of mind. At The Forrest Law Firm, we believe that you deserve a fresh start.
