Chapter 7 ◊ Chapter 13 ◊ Lien Stripping ◊ Alternatives to Bankruptcy

If you face financial difficulties, you may have considered filing bankruptcy as a way to get a fresh start. However, you may be uncertain about your rights and responsibilities, as well as the consequences of Chapter 7 or Chapter 13.

At the Law Offices of Michael Poole, with offices in Sherman Oaks and Orange, California. Attorney Poole has been a member of the California bar for over 20 years. We know the answers to your questions and can quickly help alleviate the stress and anxiety that accompany a bankruptcy filing.

Our Practice

We focus our entire practice on consumer bankruptcy issues, providing comprehensive counsel on matters involving:

  • Chapter 7 bankruptcy: We will help you determine whether you are eligible for protection under Chapter 7 by walking you through the means test. If you qualify, we will prepare and file all the documents to complete the process and represent you in all hearings or meetings.
  • Chapter 13 bankruptcy: If you fail to qualify for Chapter 7 or just want to save your home from foreclosure, we will help you reorganize your debt under Chapter 13. We will prepare a reorganization plan and will work with you throughout the payment plan.
  • Lien stripping: If the value of your home has dropped so that is worth less than the first mortgage, you can legally strip the lien of the second mortgage from your property through a Chapter 13 motion.
  • Alternatives to bankruptcy: If you have financial challenges, but do not want to file for bankruptcy or do not qualify, we can help you look at debt negotiation, loan modification, the short sale of real property and other alternatives.
