Carbon County Bankruptcy, Pennsylvania
Attorney C. Stephen Gurdin Jr. Carbon County, Pennsylvania
Carbon County Bankruptcy Attorney C. Stephen Gurdin Jr. helps people in Carbon County Pennsylvania, suffering temporary or permanent loss of income or reduction in income due to work related injury. If you have suffered a work related injury and are receiving only medical assistance while waiting for the compensation for loss of income that you deserve, a bankruptcy may be the answer. The stay created by the filing of a bankruptcy can hold off creditors, even your mortgage, mortgage foreclosure and car payments and repossessions, while you apply for compensation or get back to work. Credit repair or credit counseling scams can put you so far behind that you just cannot catch up. Back taxes may be due and owing, but you may need time to address such issues while avoiding a wage attachment or a lien on or sale of your assets. Debt relief may be the answer. Such relief is a statutory right, although obtaining such relief involves complex laws and rules. A knowledgeable and experienced attorney can assist you in obtaining the relief to which you are entitled.
Chapter 7 Carbon County Bankruptcy is a liquidation proceeding, available to both corporations and individuals but individuals may be able to retain substantial amounts of property including residence, vehicles, household goods and furnishings, personal effects, tax sheltered retirement accounts, and some other financial accounts while discharging your personal debts.

Chapter 11 Carbon County Bankruptcy is available to both individuals and corporations and can be either a liquidating or a repayment proceeding or some combination.

Proper structure will allow you to go forward protecting your assets while generating a cash stream which is exempt from withholdings. This can be done without exposing your business assets to Pennsylvania corporate franchise tax through the use of general or limited partnership forms alone or in combination with other forms. A business can also operate using multiple corporate form creating a separate corporation for each area or location of business, building up each area or location, and selling or leasing some or all area’s or locations while retaining the core of your operations. All of this can be accomplished easily, quickly and affordably.
