Get a Fresh Start Through Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

At the Law Offices of Barry Levinson, we understand that anyone can get overwhelmed by debt. Perhaps a costly medical emergency starts it off. Maybe an adjustable rate mortgage brings some surprises.

Filing Chapter 7 personal bankruptcy is one of those options.

We will look at your bills. We will take great care to make certain that you only move forward if it truly makes sense in your situation.

How Does It Work?

At our law firm, we take pride in helping people who qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy to eliminate debt while keeping their lives intact.

When we review your situation, we will determine whether or not filing bankruptcy is a good option for saving your home. The two types of bankruptcy available are Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy:

* Chapter 7 bankruptcy involves completely eliminating most debts through asset liquidation, which sometimes allows people to keep their homes.

* Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves creating a debt consolidation plan and is the most common method used to stop foreclosure.

You may be entitled to compensation for your losses, but you will never know unless you schedule a free initial consultation with an accomplished personal injury lawyer at our firm.

Observing the Statute of Limitations

In Nevada you have only two years after the accident happened to bring a lawsuit against a bus company for negligence. If you file after that, you will not be able to get compensation for losses. These often include:

• Doctor, hospital and emergency room visits
• Lost wages
• Pain and suffering
• Rehabilitation therapy

When we accept a case, we mount a thorough investigation into the causes of the hotel van or scenic tour bus crash, including driver negligence, the safety record of the professional driver and the maintenance schedule of the van, public transit bus or tour bus. We also consider the condition of the road at the time of the accident, as well as the frequency and types of accidents on that street or highway. We talk to eyewitnesses, obtain copies of the police report and build as strong a case as possible.
