The phone stops ringing. Your wages stay in your paycheck. You sleep through the night without wondering if tomorrow brings another collection notice.
Filing for bankruptcy creates an automatic stay that immediately stops all collection activities. Creditors can’t call you, garnish your wages, or threaten foreclosure while your case moves through the court system. This breathing room gives you space to rebuild.
Most of our Westbury clients see their unsecured debt completely eliminated within 3-4 months through Chapter 7. Credit cards, medical bills, and personal loans disappear. You keep your home, your car, and your retirement accounts. What you lose is the crushing weight of debt that’s been suffocating your family’s future.
We have been helping Nassau County families navigate financial crises for years. We understand that Westbury homeowners face unique challenges – high property taxes, expensive living costs, and limited job markets.
You’re not just another case file here. When you call, you speak directly with an attorney who knows the local bankruptcy trustees, understands Long Island’s economic pressures, and has guided hundreds of families through this exact situation.
We’ve seen what works and what doesn’t. More importantly, we’ve seen families come out stronger on the other side.
First, we meet for a free consultation to review your debts, income, and assets. We’ll determine if Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy makes more sense for your situation. Most Westbury families qualify for Chapter 7, which eliminates debt faster.
Next, we prepare and file your bankruptcy petition with the Eastern District of New York. The moment we file, the automatic stay goes into effect. Collection calls stop immediately. Foreclosure proceedings halt. Wage garnishments end.
Within 30 days, you’ll attend a brief meeting of creditors – usually lasting 5-10 minutes. We’ll be there with you. Most creditors don’t even show up. Three months later, you receive your discharge order eliminating your qualifying debts. The whole process typically takes 90-120 days from start to finish.
Ready to get started?
We handle both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy cases for Westbury residents. Chapter 7 eliminates most unsecured debts quickly. Chapter 13 creates manageable payment plans while protecting your home from foreclosure.
Our foreclosure defense services buy you time when the bank starts proceedings. We challenge improper documentation, negotiate loan modifications, and explore all alternatives before recommending bankruptcy as your best option.
You also receive guidance on rebuilding credit after discharge. We explain which debts to pay first, how to establish new credit responsibly, and what to expect during your financial recovery. Many clients see their credit scores improve significantly within 18-24 months after filing.
