Don’t Pay a Dime for an Initial Consultation with a Bankruptcy Lawye...

01/20/11

If you are considering filing for bankruptcy, either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13, beware of lawyers that charge a fee for the initial consultation. You have to ask yourself several questions before doing so:

1) Why should I pay before I know if I can even be helped by the attorney?
2) Am I getting the advice of the top attorney or simply a newer associate?
3) Am I being treated with personal care or am I being herded in like a sheep?

The bottom line is that there are dozens of qualified attorneys who will offer bankruptcy advice simply for the asking. There is no need to pay in advance before you have decided whether or not to file for bankruptcy. Further, there is a plethora of information on the internet, including interviews, video, articles, etc.

My advice is simple. Do your homework. After some preliminary research and telephone calls to the prospective offices, you will have a good sense of who is going to provide you with knowledgeable, quality service at an affordable price. I trust that you will find the Law Offices of David M. Siegel & Associates to be that firm. Since 1991, I have been assisting clients with the utmost in personal care. If you make one call to my office and ask to speak with me, you will know exactly what I mean.
