You’re drowning in bills, creditors won’t stop calling, and every day feels like you’re falling further behind. The stress is affecting your sleep, your relationships, and your peace of mind.
Filing for bankruptcy can stop this cycle immediately. The moment your case is filed, an automatic stay goes into effect – no more collection calls, no more wage garnishments, no more sleepless nights wondering how you’ll pay next month’s bills.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy eliminates most unsecured debts like credit cards and medical bills within 3-4 months. Chapter 13 creates a manageable payment plan that lets you keep your home while catching up on missed mortgage payments. Both options give you the breathing room you need to rebuild your financial life on solid ground.
We have been helping Nassau County residents navigate bankruptcy law for years. We understand the unique financial pressures facing Franklin Square families – from property taxes to cost of living challenges.
Our firm handles bankruptcy cases exclusively, which means we know every detail of New York bankruptcy law and have established relationships with local trustees and court personnel. This experience translates into smoother cases and better outcomes for our clients.
We’ve filed hundreds of successful Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases, helping people eliminate debt, save their homes, and start fresh. Most importantly, we treat every client with respect and dignity during what’s often the most stressful time in their lives.
Your bankruptcy process starts with a free consultation where we review your debts, income, and assets to determine if Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 is right for you. We’ll explain exactly what debts can be eliminated and what property you can keep.
Once you decide to move forward, we prepare and file your bankruptcy petition with the Nassau County bankruptcy court. The automatic stay takes effect immediately, stopping all collection activities. We handle all communication with creditors and trustees from this point forward.
You’ll attend a brief meeting of creditors about 30 days after filing, where a trustee asks basic questions about your finances. We prepare you thoroughly for this meeting and attend with you. For Chapter 7 cases, you typically receive your discharge within 3-4 months. Chapter 13 cases involve a 3-5 year payment plan, after which remaining eligible debts are discharged.

Our bankruptcy practice covers both Chapter 7 liquidation and Chapter 13 reorganization cases. We also handle foreclosure defense for homeowners who want to keep their property through bankruptcy or loan modification.
Every case includes a thorough analysis of your debts to maximize what can be eliminated. We identify which assets are protected under New York exemption laws and develop strategies to preserve your most important property. Our goal is to eliminate as much debt as possible while protecting what matters most to you.
We also provide guidance on rebuilding credit after bankruptcy, including when to apply for new credit and how to establish positive payment history. Many clients are surprised to learn they can qualify for a mortgage just two years after a Chapter 7 discharge with proper planning.
