Marietta, Metro Atlanta and North Georgia Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Attorney
Bankruptcy offers the opportunity to obtain debt relief from most unsecured credit card and medical debt, and to get a fresh financial start on life. At our law firm, we help our clients protect their assets and personal property from creditors. We can prevent or stop garnishment of your wages or other income.
Since 1985, our clients have received personalized service and have benefited from working directly with attorney Susan Wheat Lehner, a member of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys. She has more than 25 years of experience protecting clients' financial rights through bankruptcy.
We carefully explain legal options available to determine what type of bankruptcy is the appropriate one for each client. Bankruptcy is not always the answer, but if it is, we can help you attain debt relief through the Bankruptcy Code.
- Chapter 7 debt relief — Debt can be discharged through a Chapter 7 bankruptcy when payments become impossible to meet. If you are routinely skipping payments, using one credit card to pay another, receiving harassing phone calls or have been sued by creditors that want to collect their debt, it is time to take action. Chapter 7 offers relief from medical bills, credit card obligations, personal loans and other unsecured debt.
- Chapter 13 repayment plan — Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a repayment plan used to manage debt. Debt is restructured and consolidated into one monthly payment paid over a period of time. A Chapter 13 may be an option when a Chapter 7 is not an option.
