WHAT WE DO

Personal and Business Bankruptcy Law

Bankruptcy is an important tool to assist individuals and families in times of personal financial difficulties. Mr. Jolley has developed a bankruptcy practice that has helped hundreds of individuals and families get a fresh start through Chapter 7, or helped them repay their debts over time through Chapter 13 of the bankruptcy code. Filing a Chapter 13 can immediately prevent a foreclosure sale from taking place and provide the means to pay the mortgage payment arrears over up to 60 months, or allow a the homeowner more time to sell their home rather than loose it through the foreclosure process, which would make it more difficult to finance another home in the future. But Chapter 13 can also help a person get their license back if their tickets are just too expensive to pay in one lump sum. In other words, Chapter 13 gives a person or family the time to catch up bills with the budget they have, not what they used to have, and in many cases, many of the debts can be discharged just like in Chapter 7 making them forever uncollectable by the creditor.
