A Certain Lawyer for Uncertain Times

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Their home was underwater by more than $200,000 with foreclosure looming, family income was down 40%, they were behind on car payments and avoiding repo men, their credit card interest rates were up to 30% and creditors were relentlessly calling for payment on over $50,000 in unsecured debt.  Fortunately, the Johnson family (names have been changed to protect privacy) didn't panic, nor did they waste their savings trying to settle with creditors or by hiring a fly-by-night loan modification "expert."  They just made one call to Mr. Siderman, a family friend and bankruptcy lawyer.  The result:

• Credit card debt eliminated
• Home saved
• Cars saved
• Credit score INCREASED

The Johnson's situation is hardly unique (millions of Americans are in similar situations) – but the speed and magnitude of their recovery was remarkable. "It's remarkable because the same relief the Johnsons obtained is available to just about everyone in situations similar to theirs," exclaims Mr. Siderman.  Through the careful application of Federal Bankruptcy Protection laws, Mr. Siderman was able to eliminate their unsecured debt, save their home and cars and improve their credit in less than 90 days.  Mr. Siderman is not a magician.  He's just a detail-oriented lawyer who knows how to maximize the protections offered by federal bankruptcy law (one of the most complex code sections in our legal system).

"I see too many families struggling through this awful economy, tragically burning through savings and 401Ks, just trying to pay off old debt or keep up with overvalued homes  -  when I could painlessly remove those debts and burdens virtually overnight," says Siderman.  The unfortunate reality is that an enormous percentage of our population is literally financially bankrupt, but misinformed or clueless about protections available through the Federal Bankruptcy Code.

Thousands of the most successful Americans in history, from Abraham Lincoln to Walt Disney, filed for bankruptcy to avoid financial ruin. They all understood that bankruptcy is a business decision – NOT a moral one.  "The Federal Bankruptcy Code has been a legitimate safety net for hundreds of years.  It's just sad that so few take advantage of it when they need it most," says Siderman.
