Our Oakland County attorneys can help with debt problems. We will carefully examine your finances and provide clear direction regarding your options. In some situations, filing for bankruptcy might be the clear choice. However, we will not attempt to push a client in one direction or the other. If bankruptcy is not right, we will look to explore other financial options. Count on our firm for honest answers and direct responses.

Many times, creditors and collections agencies overstep their legal boundaries and exert unnecessary pressure on debtors. The government has enacted powerful protections in the form of the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act. This act clearly stipulates the types of actions creditors can take. Many questions are answered, including:

  • Can they call me at work?
  • Can they contact my neighbors?
  • Can they contact my family members?
  • Can they try to contact me in the middle of the night?

If you feel that you are being victimized by a creditor, do not hesitate to contact our firm. Creditors have set guidelines that they must follow, and if they do not, we will fight to hold them accountable for their actions.


If you are facing legal issues in your personal or professional life, it is wise to contact an attorney as soon as possible. We can carefully evaluate your issue and provide legal advice and representation no matter how complex your dilemma.
