Due to the troubled economy, many individuals and families are finding themselves buried under a mountain of consumer debt. With a sudden job loss or an unexpected medical crisis, bills can pile up and income cannot keep up.

If you have found that you are unable to manage your debt, the consumer bankruptcy attorneys at Long, Badger, Sheller & Smith, LLP., in Salisbury are ready to help. Serving the communities of Maryland's eastern shore since 1969, we have helped thousands of people find a fresh start through Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Contact us to learn how we can assist you.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy is the process for obtaining a discharge of your debts. Through the liquidation of some assets, this chapter of bankruptcy releases debtors from specific debts. This does not mean that individuals and families filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy will lose everything. Rather, most people retain their possessions because the bankruptcy code allows exemptions for assets deemed essential.

You Can Regain Control of Your Life

Once you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay goes into effect. This stay stops all collections activities, such as:

• Harassing creditor calls
• Repossessions
• Garnishment
• Foreclosure
• Lawsuits
• Judgments

Within a short period of time, usually a few months, most of your debts will be discharged allowing you to begin a new chapter in your life.

At Long, Badger, Sheller & Smith, LLP., we are dedicated to helping our clients through difficult life situations. When your financial situation is out of balance, our lawyers can help you regain control. Contact us today to schedule an initial consultation and to learn if filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy is right for you.

We are a debt relief agency. We help people file for Bankruptcy relief under the Bankruptcy Code.
