Our Lincoln and Omaha bankruptcy attorney can assist you with:

  • Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. Individuals and businesses may qualify to liquidate non-exempt assets in exchange for a discharge of unsecured debts.
  • Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. Partnerships, corporations, and other types of business entities can use this type of bankruptcy to operate normally while they reorganize their debts and obligations.
  • Chapter 12 Bankruptcy. Family farmers can use this type of bankruptcy to reorganize their operation.
  • Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. If you wish to avoid liquidation, this type of bankruptcy allows you to keep your assets and commit to a payment plan designed to repay debts over several years.
  • Foreclosure. Bankruptcy can stop the foreclosure process and save your home if you file before a trustee sale has taken place.
  • Wage Garnishments. Bankruptcy’s automatic stay can put a stop to wage garnishments, and you may be able to recover some of what was taken from your paycheck.
