Stop Creditor Harassment
When you file bankruptcy, Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you will put an end to creditor harassment for good. Although creditors may contact you prior to your filing, there are many laws, both Federal and state, that may protect you from further harassment. LoScalzo & Associates are practiced in this type of law, known as Consumer Law, as well as bankruptcy. Your Long Island bankruptcy attorney will be able to advise you in both areas of the law.
Automatic Stay
The automatic stay immediately stops any lawsuit filed against you and most actions against your property by a creditor, collection agency, or government entity once you file bankruptcy. Although overwhelming debt is the primary reason that most people file bankruptcy, the automatic stay is a powerful tool that can be employed by your Long Island bankruptcy attorney for several other circumstances. If you are at risk of foreclosure or eviction, loss of utilities for nonpayment, or loss of other types of income or benefit, the automatic stay may be employed.
