Job loss, divorce and medical problems can all bring financial insecurity. At Sanders Legal, we help clients who have debt concerns file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Our lawyers — Lisa and Norman Sanders — have over 20 years of experience representing clients throughout Southern Maryland, including clients in Prince Georges County, Charles County and Calvert County.
Our Approach to Bankruptcy When clients contact us, we explain every option that is available in their situation. Before we file, we want you to feel as though you have all the pieces of the puzzle. One of the first things we determine is whether you should file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. - Chapter 7 bankruptcy: Chapter 7 bankruptcy discharges all qualifying unsecured debt. Secure debt, such as house and car payments, must be up-to-date or you may need to give them up. We use a means test to determine if you qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
- Chapter 13 bankruptcy: With Chapter 13 bankruptcy, your debts are reorganized into a3-5 year payment plan that your creditors must accept. To qualify for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, we do a plan analysis that determines if you have enough funds to make regular payments.
Regain Control of Your Finances Filing for bankruptcy allows you take control of your financial situation. Creditor harassment, garnishments and foreclosure actions must stop once the petition is filed, and you can finally have the peace of mind you have been waiting.
