I received an email the other day from someone who filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy on her own. The emailer is facing a problem in that she doesn’t know how to enforce her bankruptcy rights.
Many people think that they are paying a lawyer to do paperwork. That’s only part of what a good lawyer does for you. In addition to preparing the documents for you, the lawyer is there to give you advice and, most importantly, the lawyer is there to defend your rights and make sure that situations like this emailer faced are resolved immediately. The emailer ended her email by saying “Wish I had a lawyer.”
The bankruptcy world is a hostile world for debtors these days. Don’t take the plunge without a experienced bankruptcy attorney to represent you!
