Bankruptcy Lawyer serving Southern New York in Middletown, Poughkeepsie and the 4-County Area of Sullivan, Ulster, Dutchess and Orange

Our law office is conveniently located on Dolson Avenue in Middletown Interstate-84.  The vast majority of our bankruptcy filings are in the Bankruptcy Court in Poughkeepsie, and we provide legal services for bankruptcy throughout the four-county area – Sullivan, Ulster, Dutchess and Orange Counties and serve many of the surrounding communities from Goshen, Poughkeepsie and Kingston to Monticello.

In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing, we assist individuals in financial distress to start over with a clean slate. People without considerable assets, but who are buried in debt may find liquidation bankruptcy, or Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the best solution to their financial problems. Individuals with considerable assets to lose, or those whose homes are  in foreclosure, may find a debt  repayment plan as devised in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy more appropriate. Whatever the situation, we take a personal approach with our clients, listen to their financial troubles and explore all angles to arrive at the best solution. Each individual’s situation is unique, and sometimes we discover that filing bankruptcy is not the most viable answer. At times a non bankruptcy alternative may be more suitable for some people.
