Services
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
Chapter 7 bankruptcy eliminates unsecured debts through asset liquidation exemptions. Our certified specialists help clients qualify for debt discharge while protecting maximum assets under California's homestead exemptions. We guide clients through creditor harassment cessation and four-month discharge process.
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Chapter 13 restructures debt into 3-5 year repayment plans. Our team develops customized strategies to retain non-exempt assets while addressing tax arrears, mortgage defaults, and child support obligations. We help clients rebuild credit during plan execution.
Debt Settlement
Our attorneys negotiate with creditors to reduce total debt balances. We handle unsecured debts like credit cards and medical bills while implementing legal protections against collection actions. Our approach prioritizes tax-efficient settlement structures.
Foreclosure Defense
We provide urgent intervention for California homeowners facing foreclosure. Through bankruptcy filings, loan modifications, and legal challenges, we help clients stop auction sales and preserve home equity under state-specific protections.
Bankruptcy Litigation
Our firm represents clients in complex bankruptcy disputes including discharge objections and asset exemption challenges. With appellate experience overturning lower court rulings, we handle adversary proceedings and appeals in federal courts.
