We had a client recently that said that she is referring her Bankruptcy Lawyer to her friends like she used to refer her hair dresser.
There was a time, not so long ago, when Bankruptcy was considered a huge embarrassment and caused a lot of shame to those that had to file. Fortunately today, we have risen above that.
Today, bankruptcy has become more socially acceptable, and so much more common. In 2009, the San Diego Bankruptcy Court stated that that 20,188 cases were filed. Further more, we are on course to shatter that number in 2010. According to the NY Times article "Sharp Increase in March in Personal Bankruptcies", in March our nation had the highest amount of personal bankruptcies filed since the new laws were put in place in 2005.
Filing bankruptcy may not be easy, but at lease it is nothing to be ashamed of. Hiring an experienced Attorney can alleviate some of the difficulty and help you to take that first step toward a fresh start.
