Preventing and Stopping Lawsuits Against You
Being served with a lawsuit is an unsettling experience and often the end result of unsuccessful negotiations over a debt owed to creditors. Regardless of the validity of any legal action you are facing, a bankruptcy filing can stop it and prevent future suits against you.
A Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy puts an end to pending lawsuits and prevents the filing of future cases. At the Reed Law Firm, P.A., our attorneys bring comprehensive experience by focusing solely on bankruptcy protection for clients throughout the state of South Carolina.
For many, facing a lawsuit is the breaking point that results in a decision to file bankruptcy. Time is of the essence. Contact our Columbia based firm at 803-807-2565 or our Florence law office at 843-536-0073 today.
Bankruptcy Stops Creditor Lawsuits
At the Reed Law Firm, P.A., we see clients at various stages of a lawsuit. Some have just been served or are awaiting a court date. They want to protect themselves from this extreme legal action. A bankruptcy filing immediately stops the process, similar to ending home foreclosure or car repossession.
A Bankruptcy Filing Can Discharge a Judgment from a Creditor Lawsuit
For those clients who wait until the lawsuit is tried with a verdict against them, options still exist. Bankruptcy filings can not only stop the process, but also potentially discharge or allow you to avoid paying the judgment.
A Court Approved Petition Can Shield You From Future Creditor Lawsuits
The possibility of future lawsuits is eliminated once the bankruptcy petition is approved by the court. The stress you feel over creditors harassing you and process servers knocking on your door can end by asserting your rights to bankruptcy protection.
