Our Law Firm's Process

Three Easy Steps

Image

Stop Harassment / Garnishment

By law, most actions against you must cease once a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 personal bankruptcy has been filed. Creditors cannot initiate or continue lawsuits, wage garnishments, or even telephone calls demanding payments. Our bankruptcy law firm will act quickly to file your bankruptcy petition, stop the phone calls and lift any burdensome garnishments.

Image

Eliminate Debt

Both Chapter 7 & Chapter 13 personal bankruptcy can eliminate overwhelming debt. Debts may include credit card debt, bank loans, medical bills, most court judgments, and deficiencies on repossessed vehicles. When you speak to a bankruptcy lawyer at our law firm, we will let you know what you qualify for and discuss all of your options.

We Work Quickly To Get You A Fresh Start.

Keep Your Assets / Rebuild Credit

You may be able to keep your car, house and other personal belongings when filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 personal bankruptcy. When you work with our bankruptcy law firm, our personal bankruptcy attorneys will help you retain your assets and show you what steps to take following your bankruptcy so that you can quickly get back on your feet. You may also begin to rebuild your credit immediately after.

I have worked for Maylene Abad for over five years, beginning as a legal assistant before becoming a licensed attorney in September 2025. I knew I wanted to be a lawyer as early as high school, when I read Marbury v. Madison and was fascinated by the reasoning the Supreme Court used to establish the practice of judicial review. Like Maylene, I have experience handling bankruptcy, real estate, and probate matters.

*$0 Down pertains to attorney’s fees. Client would need to pay associated court filing fees, administrative costs and required credit counseling fees. Attorney will accept case prior to full payment, however, filing the case with the bankruptcy court will occur after attorney's fees have been paid in full.

*$99 is a down payment to be applied towards total attorneys fees. In order to file for bankruptcy, client is required to pay a separate filing fee for Chapter 7 filings and Chapter 13 filings. Attorney fees must be paid in full prior to actual bankruptcy filing.

We are a debt relief agency. We are attorneys who help people file for bankruptcy relief under the bankruptcy code.
