If your town isn’t on the list but you’re in South Jersey, we almost
certainly serve it. Just ask.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Wipe out credit card debt, medical bills, and
personal loans. Most cases close in 90 to 120 days. Flat-fee pricing
with flexible payment plans.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Behind on your mortgage or your car payment?
Chapter 13 lets you catch up over a 3 to 5 year court-approved plan
while keeping your home and car. Attorney fees are built into the plan,
nothing extra out of pocket.
Foreclosure defense. If a foreclosure complaint has been filed
against your South Jersey home, filing bankruptcy stops the sheriff
sale and gives you breathing room to restructure.
Student loan discharge. Recent legal changes have made it possible
to discharge federal and private student loans through bankruptcy in
ways that weren’t available even a few years ago.
Subchapter V (small business reorganization). A faster, lower-cost
alternative to traditional Chapter 11 for South Jersey small business
owners who need to restructure debt and keep operating.
South Jersey bankruptcy cases are heard in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court
for the District of New Jersey, Camden vicinage. Most hearings,
including the required 341 meeting of creditors, are now conducted
remotely, which means clients across South Jersey can complete the
entire process without ever stepping into a courthouse.
