Bankruptcy

Bankruptcy Protection in the Kansas City Metro Area

Debt problems can be overwhelming. If you miss a few payments, it can become nearly impossible to catch up. When you are injured, sick, out of work, or simply down on your luck harassment from collection agencies and creditors is the last thing you should have to deal with. At Vandeginste-Wollard Law, LLC, we help clients deal with debt and get a fresh start.

If you are having problems with debt, contact us online, call toll free at 888-716-0455, or call us locally at 816-452-1710 to schedule a free initial consultation to discuss your situation with a knowledgeable lawyer.

The Benefits of Bankruptcy

Chapter 7 bankruptcy and Chapter 13 bankruptcy offer many people the solution they are seeking. When you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay prevents creditors from calling you, sending you collection letters, or otherwise contacting you about your debt. Filing for bankruptcy can put a stop to wage garnishment, home foreclosure actions, and other legal actions aimed at collecting from you.

An important benefit of bankruptcy is the weight that filing can take off your shoulders. Bankruptcy can erase or greatly reduce what you owe and help you get a fresh start. With the current state of the economy, countless people have found themselves out of work, facing foreclosure, or facing mounting credit card debt. We will discuss your options and help you understand the benefits, and the potential drawbacks, of filing for bankruptcy.

The Bankruptcy Process

When we meet with you, we will explain the process and let you know what to expect, including:

  • Your responsibilities going forward
  • How long the process will take
  • How to qualify for bankruptcy and the means test
  • Your credit counseling options
  • Anything else you need to do before filing for bankruptcy

Our staff is well-trained and highly knowledgeable in bankruptcy law. Once we have the necessary information, we will handle the work from there. Many clients are surprised at how quickly and easily they can complete the bankruptcy process once we get involved.
