Re: Question for Bankruptcy Attorneys

Bankruptcy law is not for the weak of heart. You deal with people
who simply do not know how to manage their affairs. I do mostly
13s now and I can write a book about all the bone headed things
people do to get themselves into trouble AFTER bankruptcy and they
are given a detailed budget.

However, if you send me an email, I will be happy to give you some
ideas on some of the things I am doing.
