Bankruptcy Attorney

I have some friends who had to go the bankruptcy route, years back. They're wonderful, hard-working folks, and I'm glad to say that they have made the trip all the way back.

Bankruptcy isn't something that should be approached casually. Our friends followed one key bit of advice: "get a good bankruptcy attorney." This advice served them well, and I reckoned it would be a good thought to pass along.

My friends didn't fall into bankruptcy because they were lazy. It didn't happen to them because they spent too much on personal items. They didn't go to casinos. They didn't even buy casino books. They were merely entrepreneurs caught in the crush of a downward spiral spurred on by excess real life debt. My friends worked harder and harder, until it became evident that there was no other course of action, but bankruptcy.

Life had just gone 404 ... bankruptcy, and the services of a proper bankruptcy attorney, helped them find their way.

Woke up this morning my house was cold
Checked out the furnace she wasn't burnin'
Went out and hoped in my old Ford
Hit the engine but she ain't turnin'

- B.Springsteen, One Step Up

So yeah, our little black Honda won't start this morning, and it wasn't the furnace that broke yesterday, it was the washing machine. But we're a long way from bankruptcy, thank heavens, and may it always be so for us, as it is for you ... but if it's not, get a good bankruptcy attorney! ;)
