Choosing a Bankruptcy Attorney

Since chapter 13 bankruptcy lasts for three to five years, you must take great care in choosing a law firm to represent you because that law firm will be representing for the duration of that three to five year period.  Here at the Law Offices of Keith D. Collier, we usually put our entire attorney’s fee inside the chapter 13 plan.  This means that we get paid just like your mortgage or cars companies do – through the bankruptcy.  This also means that if we are to get paid, you have to be successful in your bankruptcy.  We have found that by aligning our interests with our client’s interests, both parties can work together to ensure your bankruptcy is a successful one.  Unfortunately, many bankruptcy law firms will require a substantial down payment equal to more than a $1,000.00 and then they have less of an incentive to closely monitor your case and make sure it goes smoothly for you because they have less invested.  We do things a little bit differently – if you don’t succeed, then we don’t succeed.

Contact our offices today to for a free phone or in-office consultation to see if chapter 13 bankruptcy can help you.
