What does a bankruptcy lawyer do?

Bankruptcy and debt lawyers help individuals and businesses that can no longer keep up with what they owe. They explain the difference between Chapter 7 liquidation and a Chapter 13 repayment plan, help stop collection calls and, where the law allows, foreclosure, and guide clients through the federal bankruptcy court process.

Before you hire a bankruptcy lawyer in New Jersey

  • Confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with the New Jersey state bar.
  • Ask how long they have handled bankruptcy matters and how often they go to court.
  • Ask how fees work: hourly, flat fee or contingency, and what costs are extra.
  • Ask who will handle your case day to day and how you will get updates.
  • Get the fee agreement in writing before any work begins.
