Bankruptcy

If you are currently drowning in debt and unsure how to proceed, retaining immediate representation of our bankruptcy attorneys in Houston Texas would be advisable. Bankruptcy law in the United States is a federal legal framework that provides relief and protection to individuals and businesses who are unable to repay their debts. It offers a means to reorganize or discharge debts and obtain a fresh financial start. 

There are various types of bankruptcy filings available to you. It is important you understand which of them is most appropriate for your specific circumstances. The most common ones for individuals and businesses are: 

  1. Chapter 7 bankruptcy, a court-appointed trustee liquidates the debtors non-exempt assets to repay creditors. These include most unsecured debts, such as credit card debts and medical bills. However, certain debts, such as student loans and tax debts, generally cannot be discharged.

  2. Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a reorganization bankruptcy available to individuals with regular income. It allows debtors to develop a plan to repay all or a portion of their debts over a period of three to five years. Chapter 13 is often suitable for individuals who want to keep their assets, such as a home, and catch up on missed mortgage or car payments.

  3. Chapter 11 Bankruptcy: Chapter 11 bankruptcy primarily applies to businesses, but it can also be used by individuals with substantial debts. It allows debtors to reorganize their financial affairs and develop a plan to repay creditors while continuing their operations. Chapter 11 bankruptcy is typically more complex and expensive than Chapter 7 or Chapter 13, and it is often utilized by large corporations.

Prior to the program I was enthusiastic about my business idea, but when questioned I would struggle to explain my business plan. As part of the program Ezenwanyi asked me thorough questions to get me to comprehensively think through my business idea. Due to the program, I can now confidently articulate my business plan when speaking with lenders. In addition she has helped me protect my brand through trademarking my company.

I have never been able to say this before - - - I HIGHLY recommend this firm! We tried several people for estate planning services and this is the most responsive and personal service I have ever received. Ms. Abbi is a smart, hard working woman who clearly cares about her clients. Her systems for managing our case were efficient and technology driven, and she balances that with that old fashioned personal touch service that is lacking in most firms. I appreciate her accommodating our needs and will use her again in the future. I have told my friends and family this firm is the best!

I am a raving fan of Attorney Abii. She provided exceptional legal and brand direction. I started out with one concept and she elevated my brand to a multi-level brand (from overall brand, my book, training programs and product line). I left with a clearer concept and blueprint after our 30 minute call. Lastly, She is HONEST. Thank YOU! I will strongly refer clients to you.
