I will interview you in-person or on-the-phone at no cost to determine if hiring a bankruptcy attorney will be beneficial for you. Further, we will go over both chapters of personal bankruptcies to determine which chapter would benefit you the most.



We practice both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcies in Jonesboro, Arkansas.

A Chapter 7 bankruptcy typically lasts around 4 months. It is commonly referred to as the start fresh bankruptcy. We will look at your income and expenses, ownership of property, and several other factors to determine if you qualify for a Chapter 7. Chapter 7's are typically filed if wages are being garnished, medical bills have been incurred, credit card debt incurred, personal loans incurred, or repossessions and/or foreclosures have occurred.

A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a longer process. It usually lasts from 3-5 years. A monthly payment is made to a bankruptcy trustee during the life of the bankruptcy. Chapter 13 bankruptcies are typically filed because someone is behind on their car payments, behind on their home payments, or earn too much to file a chapter 7.

Filing for bankruptcy has many benefits including stopping creditor harassment and garnishments. It can reduce the stress in your life by allowing me to deal with your creditors rather than you. Also, it can allow you to keep your home or vehicle if you have fallen behind on your payments.
