Can I Still Get a Bankruptcy?
There has been a lot of confusion over the last few years about bankruptcy, and who IS and IS NOT eligible. The fact is that both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcies are still available, and a short meeting with an attorney can help you decide which is best for you.
How We Operate
The Mathews Group, LC offers Bankruptcy Representation as a part of our Asset Protection section. WE ARE NOT A BANKRUPTCY FACTORY, where you'll be one of a hundred "cases" being handled by an over-worked, under-paid attorney. We handle bankruptcy as part of a larger personal and business financial picture. While other law firms may take fifteen minutes to fill out a form online and then send you home, we understand that bankruptcy is an unfortunate, but sometimes necessary part of life. Our clients don't choose to avoid paying their creditors. But with credit card "penalty rates" of 32%, and escalating payment for their Adjustable Rate Mortgage on a depreciating house, the system can cause you to get too far behind to ever get ahead. The strain on the individual, and on the family, is extremely harmful.
The Mathews Group, LC will take the time to listen to your situation, AND to help you devise new strategies that will help you in the future. We are truly LEGAL COUNSEL, not bankruptcy jockeys.
AND WE DON'T CHARGE A PREMIUM FOR THE EXTRA SERVICE. Bankruptcy is a service that we provide to our clients, not a "racket" for us to get rich off of other people's difficulties. In fact, we charge lower rates than the "bankruptcy factories," and we file in both Missouri and Kansas. Here's what you can count on from us:
1. We will LISTEN to you
2. We will provide you with Legal Counsel and Guidance, whether you hire us or not
3. We will tell you if you need a lawyer
4. We will tell you if you DON'T need a lawyer
5. And if we don't have the right lawyer for you, we will help you find one
That's our promise of Fair-Dealing, and it is the cornerstone of our business philosophy.
Flat-Fees for Bankruptcies
Chapter 7 Bankruptcies - FLAT FEE - $2000
Chapter 13 Bankruptcies - FLAT-FEE - $3000, and most of that is included as part of the repayment plan, so it is NOT due up-front!
Some of our clients come to us knowing that they need a bankruptcy. Others aren't sure. Still others think they need a bankruptcy, but don't. Sit down with a professional business attorney to discuss your entire financial picture, and to hear about options. We never try to "sell" a bankruptcy. If we can show you a way to solve your problems through negotiations with your creditors, without our help, we will. That's our business model, and that's why our clients return to us, and trust us enough to refer their friends and family members to us. Call Us Today for a free consultation, in our office, at your home, or over the phone, and find out what The Mathews Group, LC can do for you.
