Claimed Lawyer Profile

Biography

I am an attorney and counselor at law with a bankruptcy, consumer, small business and matrimonial law concentration. Because I am admitted in NY, NJ and PA, I can also handle multi-jurisdictional issues - helping clients with problems in different states. Bankruptcy and divorce involves finding creative solutions to sometimes unique problems and personalities. I am very straightforward and cut through the bull to get to the heart of the matter and try to save clients time and money.

I can take credit cards but I am not allowed to take a debtors own card to file their own bankruptcy, since the debt would be discharged. I prefer checks.
