Christian Law Firm Announces Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Assistance In Orange County

TEB Law in Santa Ana, California, has announced that they will be offering assistance to those who are considering Chapter 7 bankruptcy. The Orange County law firm, headed by Thomas E. Brownfield, is a Christian-based firm that will be providing assistance for all types of bankruptcies to clients.

"We will inform our clients about their options regarding bankruptcy and ensure that they know exactly which option is best for their unique situation," says Thomas Brownfield. "Anyone who thinks they may qualify for bankruptcy or who is looking at a financial situation that they just can't get out of, should contact us for an appointment."

Bankruptcies have been on the rise over the past decade, and laws pertaining to who can and cannot file for bankruptcy have changed drastically. Brownfield states, "We will examine each individual circumstance in detail, so that we can help our client to determine which specific bankruptcy is best for them, if any." The law firm offers a free one hour consultation, where potential clients can determine whether or not services are needed.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy is considered a "clean slate" bankruptcy, as it completely eliminates most debt. Most consumers will consider this type of bankruptcy first, before Chapter 13, which enables all debtors to be eventually paid what is owed to them.

Years ago, filing for this type of bankruptcy was relatively easy. Today, however, laws have been put in place that prevent certain individuals from filing. Income and other factors are considered before a determination can be made. A Means Test is done to determine whether or not the filer qualifies with regards to income.

"We can help to make that determination," says Brownfield. "We have the experience needed, and we're updated on all current laws. If someone feels that Chapter 7 bankruptcy may be an option for them, the best thing that they can do is reach out to us and allow us to consult with them."
