A Debt Law Group PLLC

Tell Bill Collectors- Call My Lawyers & Stop Calling Me

This lawyer is licensed to practice in Virginia and has no record of discipline from the Virginia bar association.*

Firm Overview

We limit our practice to Bankruptcy to stay expert and current.

Example cases

• We regularly consolidate many bills often totaling well over $100,000 into whatever payment the client can afford. After typically, three years of payments any balances are forgiven and our clients are typically debt-free.

• Our clients with steady employment typically see their credit score going back up within 12 to 18 months after they file a Debt Adjustment case.

• Our client might instead elect to file a Full Bankruptcy if they qualify and elect Full Bankruptcy.

• We typically begin representing a client with creditors once we have met and have been paid a $200 fee. This typically reduces collection pressure while you prepare and pay for your Debt Adjustment or Full Bankruptcy.

Is your firm willing to help a client with one discrete part of a case, without taking on the whole case?

Again, this is limited by local court practices.

What are your policies about dividing work within the firm to make the process most cost-effective for the client?

We keep our fees very reasonable by using paralegals for support work and attorneys for attorney work.

How frequently does your firm use mediation, arbitration, or collaborative law to resolve cases?

We have had a lot of success with this, particularly with mortgage modifications.

Does your firm provide pro bono legal services or otherwise participate in your community?

We teach in the community to help folks understand what their rights are when they are over-whelmed with debts.

What distinguishes your law firm from others?

We limit our practice to Bankruptcy so we will stay good at what we do. We have neighborhood offices and evening and weekend hours available by appointment as many of our clients have rigid work schedules. We also offer very workable payment plans.

What is your firm's point of view regarding clients educating themselves on legal issues?

We make a great effort to ensure that our clients understand exactly how their case works. We hate surprises and know that our client's share this. We educate or clients to avoid surprises.

Is your firm willing to review documents prepared by clients?

We do this in every case.

Is your firm willing to coach clients who want to represent themselves?

In bankruptcy there is no pro-bono advice on filing forms. If we help with this we become the client's lawyer and must fully represent the client throughout the case.
