Bankruptcy

 If you have found yourself 'up-side-down' in your financial situation, there is hope. Student debt, high healthcare costs, and an increased cost of living, in general, are making things hard for millions of Americans. Fortunately, there is a way to achieve a fresh-start where you can breath again.  I can help you sort through this process to find the right Chapter for your situation and then file for you.

 Probate 

If you've ever lost a loved one and had to administer their estate, then you know the seemingly insurmountable stress and the overwhelming pressure that accompanies it.  There are funeral arrangements, family obligations, and all of that person's belongings to go through, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.  If they had a will or died intestate their estate will likely need to go through probate. Allow me to guide you through this arduous process and take care of the mounds of tedious court forms so you can deal with what's really important.

  

Tax Resolution

You probably remember the first year you didn't file. Maybe life just got too loud—a job loss, a family emergency, or simply a move that left your records in a box you couldn't find. Then, the next year arrived, and the weight of the previous year made it even harder to hit 'submit.' Now, you are living with a quiet, persistent anxiety every time the mail truck rolls by. You are waiting for a shoe to drop, worrying that a simple bank deposit or a new job will trigger a system that has finally caught up with you.

It feels like you are trapped in a basement with no exit, but the truth is actually much kinder: the IRS already knows you haven't filed, and they are often just waiting for you to make the first move.
