Consumer Bankruptcy • Business Bankruptcy
Attorney Andy Wagener brings more than 10 years of experience to your petition for debt relief. He has helped clients successfully file for:
- Chapter 7 bankruptcy — discharge of unsecured debts such as credit card balances or medical bills to get a fresh financial start
- Chapter 13 bankruptcy — protection from creditors while you repay your debts over several years.
- Chapter 11 bankruptcy — reorganization of business debts to keep the operation going
- Chapter 12 bankruptcy — a debt reprieve for farmers and fisherman
Exploring Your Solutions and Answering Your Questions
We understand that filing for bankruptcy is a big step, even if you have run out of other options. Mr. Wagener will sit down with you to examine your financial picture and advise on the best course of action. He will determine if you qualify for Chapter 7, which debts you could discharge, and which assets you would likely keep. He can address the impact on your credit rating and other concerns.
When you file for bankruptcy, all creditor actions are put on hold. This includes foreclosure, repossession, wage garnishment and collection agency liens. The harassing phone calls also must stop immediately. If you have substantial mortgage arrears, you may need to file Chapter 13 to save your home.
A Chapter 11 business reorganization offers protection from creditors to determine if you can turn the business around. If it cannot be salvaged, Chapter 11 also allows you to retain control and liquidate the business on your terms, as opposed to a Chapter 7 liquidation in which assets are assigned to a bankruptcy trustee for disposition.
