I have very close family that need to file bankrupcy in the stockton, elk grove, sacramento area. They have little money and attorneys for this process often charge about 2 grand (money they obviously don’t have!) Does anyone out there know of any one who can help this family out for less than a g? PLEASE let me know!
Most attorneys want 00 or more for a bankruptcy. If I had that much money around I probably wouldn’t need to file bankruptcy. Is hiring an attorney absolutely necessary? Or, can I use a paralegal or document preparer to do the forms? What suggestion might you have?
In November of 2006 my 00 debt with chase bank went into collections. A year later I called a lawyer who told me that if I haven’t been taken to court yet I probably would not. Well almost 3 years later and after the debt has been sold several times, I am being sued by lawyers representing North American Recovery Corp. I was told by Forward Properties (findaccount@gmail.com) that the current owner of my debt was the lawyers and gave me their phone number. I was served papers by the local sheriffs office and am supposed to appear in court on Sept. 24th. The first set of papers said that both parties had to appear on court and then i got a letter from the attorneys today stating they requested from the judge if they could be absent and do a phone conference while I still had to go to court. Is there any way to settle this if the lawyers have it and avoid going to court? The initial balance I owed on the account was just shy of 00.00 and the rest is all late charges and interest. I’m not sure how to attack this, who I should call etc etc, without incurring lawyer expenses of my own. I don’t have a number to contact North American Recovery Corp and cannot find one anywhere on the web. The one search that came up for that name was for another North American Recovery and they said there is another one out there. The debt is orig. from ohio and I now live in florida. Please help me with this headache.
After filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy (mortgage included -fixed rate) my husband became unemployed, so we are now 6 months behind on our mortgage and our attorneys are submitting for a loan modification, what is the process? Is a loan modification always granted?
My husband is now currently working and has been for 3 months now, it has just taken us this long to finally get in touch with our attorneys and also the mortgage lenders attorneys.
I am considering filing for bankruptcy. I am paying a collection agency and attorneys for a collection agency. They threatened to file judgments. I also had a judgment filed againstt me last week.
I’ve looked at filing for myself but really feel like I should get help from someone with some experience. I’ve heard paralegals will do it for a few hundred dollars plus costs but how do I find one? Most attorneys want to charge me over a thousand dollars which I just don’t have.
