Bankruptcy Chapter 11, 13 & 7

Those who have faced financial hardship know how difficult it is to deal with debt. Fortunately for many debtors, bankruptcy can provide a way out. Bankruptcy is designed to give debtors a financial fresh start by eliminating most debts in one fell swoop. However, it isn’t a walk in the park. In order to receive a debt discharge, debtors are typically required to make major sacrifices, such as liquidating their assets or forfeiting a percentage of their income.

Landlord Tenant Law

Whether you are a landlord looking to find the perfect tenant, or a tenant looking for reasonable accommodations and a pleasant landlord, there are several things to consider.
