Practice Areas

Chapter 7 
A Chapter 7 personal bankruptcy is also known as liquidation or a straight bankruptcy. This type of bankruptcy filing is the most common, the fastest, and applies to both individuals and married couples who are in a position where they cannot pay back the debts they owe. Specific requirements must be met to qualify for a Chapter 7.

Debt Settlement 
Debt settlement generally involves negotiation with your creditor for a reduction in the overall balance you owe which is then paid in a lump sum. This is not the same as debt consolidation or debt management where you make monthly payments to a consolidator. Debt settlement generally applies only to unsecured debt, such as credit card debt, medical bills, and personal loans.

Lien Stripping 
If the value of your home has fallen below what you owe on your first mortgage, your second or third mortgages may be able to be eliminated through lien stripping in a bankruptcy case. This can be of great value to those who are trying to save their home but are struggling with second mortgages.

    I recently used Robert Warren to help in the closing of my mom's home, and couldn't be happier with how it went. Robert and his assistant Lois were easy to work with, communicative throughout the process and helped overcome a few key issues that could have derailed our closing. 10/10 would definitely recommend!!

    “Mr Warren is an exceptional lawyer!”
    We are so appreciative to Mr Warren and his associate Lois with their help in selling our house. Their expertise in legal matters and in handling all situations involved gave us peace of mind! Thank you again for all your help!

    “Robert Warren is an excellent Real Estate attorney.”
    Robert Warren is an excellent Real Estate attorney. He and his team are always on the ball, communicate between the seller, buyer, and mortgage company very well, and they are timely in their work. I have sold a house and refinanced another house both with Robert and I can't say enough good things about him and his office. He's thorough and will make sure that nothing is 'fishy' in the mortgage paperwork. He will also hammer the mortgage company to get things right. His office also does title work so I highly recommend using Robert's office as the title company and the closing agent on a mortgage. Very reasonably priced and excellent at their job. I will go to them, and no one else, for as long as he's in business. Thanks again Robert and crew!
