Filing bankruptcy can protect your property and your future

Filing bankruptcy in New York can give you unique legal protections that other forms of debt relief can't offer. Much of this protection comes from the "automatic stay," a court order that takes effect when you file bankruptcy.

The automatic stay can:

  • Stop lawsuits
  • Stop foreclosure
  • Stop repossession
  • Stop wage garnishment
  • Stop creditor harassment, such as phone calls and letters
The protection of bankruptcy extends beyond the automatic stay, too. After your debts are settled in bankruptcy, your creditors cannot continue to collect. If they contact you or try to get more money from you after bankruptcy, you may be able to file charges against them.

If you're facing deep debt, you need help and protection. Bankruptcy may be able to help with both. Your New York City bankruptcy lawyer can take you through the process of providing you debt elimination tools and protection, as well as further provide you with bankruptcy information relevant to your case.
