Bankruptcy Law Luzerne County, Pennsylvania
Attorney C. Stephen Gurdin Jr. Luzerne County, Pennsylvania
Bankruptcy Law Luzerne County, Attorney C. Stephen Gurdin Jr. helps people in Luzerne 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.
