How Can We Help
Nothing fuels conflict, stress, and frustration like money issues. Finances can test even the strongest bonds of families, friendships, or even partnerships. Even when times seem 'good', it does not always mean that the money is there to cover all bills and expenses. Life happens, and an emergency, years of unfortunate choices, or even something like a global pandemic can put you over the edge.
Our law firm believes in the power of bankruptcy. It is not the scarlet 'B' we have come to believe it is and in all actuality can help you and your family or business get a fresh start. Contact Phillip Yates to discuss your options to get from under crippling debt and begin rebuilding your economic foundation today.
