Why Hire a Bankruptcy Lawyer?

There Is No Match for Experience

Many people wonder: Why should I hire a bankruptcy attorney? With all of the information and do-it-yourself kits available on the Internet, it must be tempting to a lot of people to handle their bankruptcy proceedings on their own without the expense of hiring a lawyer.

At Walton Legal Services, our Indiana bankruptcy attorneys have been helping clients find their best debt-relief options for more than 30 years. We can use our experience and skill to help you get the best possible outcome. Although we are extremely efficient at getting our clients through the process, we never lose sight of our clients' personalized needs. There is truly no substitute for having an experienced legal team on your side to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible throughout your bankruptcy proceedings.

When compared to the fees charged by a layman "petition preparer" with no legal training, we believe the modest additional cost represented by our set fees are a sound investment in your road toward financial freedom from debt.

Why Hire a Bankruptcy Attorney?

When you work with Walton Legal Services, our lawyers will help you:

  • Avoid costly errors: The most important thing that a lawyer can do for you in bankruptcy is help you avoid making clerical errors and filing mistakes that could cost you a lot of money or time.
  • Decide what to file: We can help you determine whether you would be eligible for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, and which would be better for your financial needs.
  • Consider complicated issues: Our attorneys can help you understand the tax issues of bankruptcy, what bankruptcy will do to your credit, how to stop creditor harassment and how to protect your assets through proper application of exemption laws.

If you are looking for an Indianapolis debt-relief lawyer to help you find the road to financial freedom, call one of our Indianapolis law offices, call our Columbus, Indiana, office or contact us online. We offer free initial consultations.

Competitive Fees

We know that our clients come to us because they are in debt; they do not need expensive legal fees undermining much of the financial benefit they might receive from bankruptcy. We make our fee arrangements known to our clients before representation. We believe that many firms do not provide this information, because they know they are charging excessive fees, and they also add in a lot of hidden costs and charges. We have no hidden fees. We do not charge for lien avoidances, reaffirmation agreements or large numbers of creditors. Our fee arrangements are our promise to you of what you will pay.
