Signs You Need a Bankruptcy Lawyer
While bankruptcy is not right for everyone in Massachusetts, it is often the best choice available for many who are facing unmanageable debt.

If you are struggling to the point where you are considering bankruptcy, an experienced attorney from Dane Shulman Associates, LLC, in Boston can help you determine whether bankruptcy is right for you.

There are a wide variety of debts that can be wiped away by filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. These debts include:
- Credit card debt
- Medical bills
- Utility bills
- Personal and unsecured bank loans
- Auto loans for a repossessed vehicle
- Mortgage loans for a foreclosed home
In addition to carrying an unmanageable debt load, another sign that you need a bankruptcy attorney is the constant harassment of creditors. If creditors are constantly calling you to threaten repossession or wage garnishment, or they are harassing your employers over your debt, bankruptcy can put a stop to it. Once you file, an automatic stay will go into effect preventing any further action against you from creditors, stopping the harassment.
