Professional Counsel
There are many factors to consider before hiring a bankruptcy attorney. Experience is an important factor because it shows how long an attorney has been practicing law and their level of knowledge. It is also important to hire a lawyer that specializes in bankruptcy and is familiar with the Judges and Trustees. Additionally, a lawyer’s reputation and reliability are key factors as is an ability to communicate with the attorney and to get your questions answered.
