Considering bankruptcy raises many questions for clients. If you’re considering bankruptcy it’s important to get answers to those questions and know what bankruptcy covers and what it does not. To make informed decisions about your financial situation, you’ll need to know:

• Can filing for bankruptcy eliminate your legal obligation to pay all your debts?
• Will it affect your credit rating?
• How much debt must you have before filing for bankruptcy and having a court discharge your debt load?
• Will it stop the foreclosure of your home or repossession of your car?
• Can it prevent garnishment of wages?
• Should you file for Chapter 7, Chapter 11 or Chapter 13?

The debt relief lawyers at McKenna Storer will provide you with those answers and carefully guide you through your options and the related consequences. We’ll answer your questions and explain the potential effects of bankruptcy on the years ahead.
