Some General Comments:

UNLESS YOU ARE A CORPORATION OR A PARTNERSHIP, EVERY DEBTOR SHOULD READ THE CHAPTER 7 AND CHAPTER 13 INFORMATION FIRST, AS THAT WILL ANSWER MANY OF YOUR QUESTIONS

Note on e-mailing:
If you e-mail me and don't get a response from me within 24 hours, I suggest that you call me at (818)509-1173 or re-send your e-mail. I always respond to e-mails within 24 hours if I receive them.

Most consultations can be done by telephone. I am, of course, available for in-office consultations in the office location listed above. However, in most cases, if it is more convenient for you (as it is for most of my clients), the entire process can be handled over the phone and by mail. PLEASE DO NOT LET DISTANCE BE A FACTOR FOR YOU.

PLEASE NOTE: Given the nature of the law, it is extremely difficult to accurately and adequately answer questions posed in an e-mail message. It is much better to schedule a consultation and allow me to ask pertinent questions that will help lead to the best answer and to best assess your personal situation. "Simple" questions, of course, can be answered by e-mail. You must indicate in your e-mail the county and state where you are living or, if you are a creditor, where the bankruptcy case was filed. Answers to most questions depend on State law and at times, local rules.
