Why You Should Hire a Bankruptcy Attorney in Minneapolis, Minnesota
Appearing on your behalf may sound appealing to some due to not paying attorney fees, but the advantages to having an attorney represent you during your bankruptcy greatly outweigh the cost associated with filing.
Bankruptcy is a nuanced area of law. It may look like you fill out the schedules, pay the filing fee, and you are on your way to receiving a discharge, but there are so many other factors you need to consider when filing for bankruptcy.
Just the other day, I overheard the hearing before one of my clients and it was a bankruptcy debtor representing herself. The problem her case had was none of her bankruptcy schedules were filled out correctly. By the end of her hearing, the trustee had mentioned bringing a motion to dismiss her case due to the grave errors she had made. This is an extreme example, but one you wouldn’t want to chance to happen.
When you file bankruptcy with an attorney, your attorney is looking out for your best interest. They will go through every page of your case with you and make sure you understand everything provided for in your case. Your attorney can best advise you on areas of bankruptcy law that you may not know about. Like bankruptcy exemptions and asset protection, the means test, and transfer issues.
When you hire an attorney you are paying for someone to look out for your bankruptcy case and best advise you pre-filing, during the case, and on post-filing issues related to filing.
