Why Bankruptcy?

Bankruptcy may be the best way for individuals to get rid of some, if not all, of their debt and to restart their financial lives. You may also be able to keep all of your property, including your home and your vehicle. Since our firm has been helping clients file for over 19 years, we have seen how our clients have benefited by filing for bankruptcy relief. At our Tampa Bay law firm, the Law Offices of Robert M. Geller, P.A., our lawyers help people determine whether bankruptcy is right for them and help them complete the process.

Questions to Ask When Considering Bankruptcy

  • What percentage of your income is your debt?
  • Have your wages been garnished?
  • Has a lawsuit been filed against you?
  • Has the value of your house declined significantly?
  • Are you making only minimum payments on your credit cards?
  • Were you recently laid off without much prospect of getting another job quickly?
  • Do you owe back taxes?
  • Do you owe child support?
  • Are you getting calls from bill collectors?

Our lawyers will ask questions such as these and more to determine whether either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy would be the right option for you. While bankruptcy may not be right for everyone with financial problems, several million people in the United States file for bankruptcy every year and are able to begin again. Let our attorneys at the Law Offices of Robert M. Geller, P.A., let you know if it is right for you after a free initial consultation.
