A woman in her mid-fifties had her hours at her job cut from five days per week to three days per week. As a result, she fell behind on all of her bills. Since her income was so drastically cut because her employer was having financial difficulty, she had to file bankruptcy. We filed a Chapter 7 case and relieved her of almost $30,000 in credit card bills and $5,000 in hospital and medical bills.

A young truck driver accumulated over $6,000 in Motor Vehicle Surcharges from numerous traffic violations that had accumulated over the years. His credit card bills had also become unmanageable. We were able to discharge the $6,000 in Motor Vehicle Surcharges in bankruptcy, in addition to discharging all of his credit card debts. As a result, he had enough money left over every month to be able to buy a newer truck and start fresh.
