Jacksonville, Florida, Personal Bankruptcy Attorney
Bankruptcy is not the end of the world. At Elrod & Elrod, our bankruptcy lawyers want clients to know you can protect your house, your car, and your personal property. You may be able to protect your assets, reorganize, and eliminate your debt. Bankruptcy can be the result of bad choices and bad luck. Divorce, the loss of a job, and unexpected medical bills can all lead to bankruptcy. We want you to know you can recover from this, and you should not be embarrassed.

Businesses and Individuals Filing for Bankruptcy
We help individuals and couples in Florida to get a fresh new start when mounting bills and debt have rendered them unable to keep up with their payments. Even though the new bankruptcy laws have changed the rules on filing for bankruptcy, for many, we can liquidate most debt under Chapter 7. If Chapter 7 is not an option, we help clients to reorganize their debt under Chapter 13 to create a manageable repayment plan. Some of the questions people ask about bankruptcy:
Will I be able to get credit after bankruptcy?
Can I keep my house or car?
How do the new bankruptcy laws affect me?
How will bankruptcy affect my credit score?
Are my student loans included?
Our skilled Florida bankruptcy attorneys can help explain all of these answers and more. Contact us today.
Chapter 13 for Businesses
Chapter 13 can be a valuable tool for small unincorporated businesses. If you own a small business and are finding it difficult to manage your debt, our bankruptcy attorneys can utilize Chapter 13 to restructure your debt and work out a payment plan. Unlike a Chapter 7 Liquidation, Chapter 13 allows you to keep operating your business while paying back creditors on more favorable terms. Chapter 13 is similar to Chapter 11, but its reporting requirements and associated costs are much more cost-effective for small business owners.
We do not want our clients to feel embarrassed or afraid to approach our law firm for help. We understand the range of things that can cause your finances to become unmanageable. Clients feel a huge sense of relief after approaching us. We seek to educate our clients about the process and are available to answer questions.
