Before Bankruptcy

What You Need to Know Before You File Bankruptcy

At the Law Office of Patrick M. Noe, Jr., we believe that you have the right to make an informed decision about whether or not bankruptcy is right for you.

We believe that your attorney should not make this important decision for you. We believe that your attorney should provide you with the facts, the options and the potential outcomes. Your attorney should provide guidance. You should make the final decision.

From our office in Amherst, we help people in Buffalo and throughout Western and Upstate New York make informed decisions about bankruptcy.

Before Bankruptcy: Know Your Options

If you're considering bankruptcy, you know that your debt has become uncontrollable. You have passed the point that you're able to pay it off without some sort of help. Now, you have a variety of debt settlement options that might work for you. They include:

What to consider when making that decision? Your assets and what you want to keep. Your debts and whether they are secured or unsecured. When you choose our law firm, you will have a lawyer standing by your side to make certain everything is considered.

Before Bankruptcy: What You Need

If bankruptcy is the best option for you, there are documents that will need to be gathered before filing. They include:

  • Property deeds
  • Vehicle titles
  • Mortgage information
  • Credit card statements, medical bills and other debt information
  • Tax returns
  • Pay stubs
  • W 2 forms

While you may want to start gathering this information ahead of time, we will discuss exactly what you need for your specific situation during our initial meeting.
