Our Bankruptcy Services

Bankruptcy is a legal proceeding designed to help individuals and businesses eliminate their debts or to restructure and repay them under the protection of the Bankruptcy Court. Generally speaking, there are two types of bankruptcy—liquidation (Chapter 7) and reorganization (Chapters 11, 12 and 13). Both types of bankruptcy, liquidation and reorganization, have numerous rules and exceptions. Which Chapter is right for you is dependent upon your particular circumstances and objectives. As part of the services that we provide the attorneys of our firm listen closely to our clients and are sensitive to our clients’ needs and objectives while giving realistic advice as to the available options.

At the Law Offices of Carolyn Secor, in Tampa, Clearwater and St Petersburg, we understand that tough economic times, and not a lack of personal financial responsibility, cause people to file for bankruptcy relief. Call for a free consultation at 727-254-1704.

Bankruptcy Eligibility

The federal government passed new bankruptcy reform legislation in October 2005. However, don’t be discouraged! Most studies indicate that the new law affects less than 15% of individuals who could have filed previously. If you are feeling overwhelmed by your debts and considering filing bankruptcy, it is highly probable that you fall into the category of the 85 percent of people who are still eligible to file.

    “Ms Secor and Sam were with me during a very dark time. They helped me through a mess I made by trying to do this on my own. She was extremely knowledgeable and had my best interest in mind. Thank you very much!!!”
