What We Can Do For You
Stop Wage Garnishment
The automatic stay stops most garnishments the moment you file. We provide same-day documentation to your employer so you see relief immediately.
Stop Foreclosure
Filing bankruptcy halts a foreclosure and gives you time to catch up. Chapter 13 can let you cure arrears over a multi-year repayment plan while keeping your home.
Eliminate Debt
Chapter 7 discharges most credit card debt, medical bills, and personal loans — often in just a few months. Chapter 13 restructures what you owe while keeping your assets protected.
Owensboro Bankruptcy — What You Should Know
Western District of Kentucky — Owensboro Division
Owensboro bankruptcy cases are filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Kentucky, Owensboro Division. We practice in this court regularly and are familiar with the trustees and local procedures that govern your case.
Most People Keep Everything They Own
The fear of losing property keeps many people from filing when they should. Kentucky’s use of federal bankruptcy exemptions means the vast majority of our clients keep their home, car, retirement accounts, and household belongings. We’ll tell you exactly where you stand during your free consultation — no pressure, no commitment.
