Situations Robert Helps With Every Week

You're not the first person in Washtenaw County to face this — and you won't be the last. These are the situations Robert sees most often.

Wages being garnished

A creditor won a judgment and your paycheck is shrinking. Filing triggers an automatic stay that stops the garnishment fast.

Foreclosure on the calendar

There's a sheriff's sale date or you've fallen behind on the mortgage. Chapter 13 can stop the sale and let you catch up over time.

Medical bills you can't outrun

Hospital and provider debt is the #1 reason Michiganders file. Most of it is unsecured and dischargeable.

Credit cards spiraling

Minimum payments aren't moving the balance. Chapter 7 wipes qualifying credit card debt entirely.

Just got served with a lawsuit

A summons doesn't have to end in a judgment. Filing before the court date can stop the case in its tracks.

Tax debt or repossession threats

Some tax debt is dischargeable, and the automatic stay applies to vehicle repossessions too. Robert will tell you what's possible.

Don't wait until the court date. The sooner Robert files, the more options you have.

How Bankruptcy Helps

What Bankruptcy Can Do For You

Stop Collection Calls & Lawsuits

The automatic stay halts garnishments, lawsuits, and harassing creditor calls — often within 24 hours of filing.

Protect Your Home & Property

Michigan exemptions and Chapter 13 reorganization can keep your home, car, retirement, and essentials safe.

Get a Fresh Financial Start

Discharge qualifying debts and rebuild — many clients see credit score recovery within 12–24 months.

60-Second Tool

Am I a Good Candidate for Bankruptcy?

Most people who walk into Robert's office aren't sure if bankruptcy is even the right move. That's normal — and it's exactly the right question to ask. The truth is, bankruptcy is a powerful tool, but it isn't the only tool. Sometimes a settlement, a debt management plan, or even doing nothing is the smarter call.

This 5-question quiz uses the same factors Robert weighs in a real consultation: your income stability, the kind of debt you're carrying, what creditors are doing right now, and whether you have a home or vehicle you want to protect.

✓ No signup, no email, nothing saved
✓ Personalized recommendation in under a minute
✓ Direct path to a free 15-minute call with Robert

Heads up: The result is a starting point, not legal advice. The real answers come from a real conversation — and Robert's first one is free.
