As an experienced bankruptcy attorney in Queens since 1991, Mark Cohen, understands that every financial situation is different. Therefore, Cohen says it has always been his objective to provide potential clients with free consultations to discuss their choices and determine if filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 would be a wise decision to save their assets and income. If a client would not benefit from filing, Cohen lets him know. Additionally, he has also stopped foreclosures and helped clients create effective payment plans that allow them to recover from hard economic times.
With stories of home foreclosures and increasing job loss popping up over nearly all of the major news circuits for the past few years, it's not very surprising that a growing number of people are filing for bankruptcy as well.
Don't expect a couple of men in suits and dark glasses from the bankruptcy court to show up unannounced at your home, rummage through your belongings, and haul away anything of value that they come across.
While the formula for the means test is standard throughout the country, the variables that determine your eligibility for bankruptcy are very varied based on the city and state that you live in.
The important thing to remember if you have a career in sales, or another position that works mainly off of commission, is that when you file for bankruptcy, the court is looking at the past and is not trying to predict the future.
While filing for bankruptcy won't help to relieve the responsibilities of those who pay rent, it may be a consideration for the men and women who own the buildings and are therefore the landlords.
