How do you qualify?
You can get qualified in 5 minutes. It is free and over the phone at 781 848 8545 or in person with a bankruptcy lawyer. Our offices are open late-night and on weekends for your convenience.
When can you expect relief?
As soon as your case is filed. Once you file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13, an injunction known as the “automatic stay” goes into effect, requiring creditors to stop all collection actions, including lawsuits. Banks and mortgage companies must halt foreclosure proceedings. The stay is temporary and may be challenged, but it can help you avoid eviction or the repossession of your cars, appliances, and other assets.

Michael Nashawaty is undoubtedly a hidden gem. His kindness, compassion, and steadfast dedication to his principles set him apart. He invests his time in educating others about the law, and he maintains constant availability throughout the day, offering prompt responses to calls and invaluable guidance. Collaborating with Michael instills in me a profound sense of security.

Nick is hands down the best in my opinion. Two years ago I had to make a difficult choice on whether bankruptcy was the road I needed to take. When I met with Nick I was in a bad place mentally because of the stress from my finances. Nick helped me go over my options one by one. This helped with the stress a lot and I ultimately decided bankruptcy was the best option. He genuinely cares about his clients and that made the whole process smoother. I highly recommend Nick and this firm to anyone.
