Essential Estate Plans and Bankruptcy Solutions for North Carolinians

Practice areas

Clear help with debt, and with planning ahead.

I focus on two areas of North Carolina practice so every client gets careful, direct attention. You work with me from the first consultation to the final paperwork.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy

A fresh start, on the terms the law provides.

Filing puts the automatic stay in place, which halts most collection activity — calls, wage garnishments, lawsuits, and foreclosure.

What it can erase

Most unsecured debt — credit cards, medical bills, personal loans, collection accounts — is typically discharged within a few months of filing. Some debts, such as child support, recent taxes, and most student loans, generally remain.

Who qualifies

If your household income is below the North Carolina median for your household size, you generally qualify. If it's above, a more detailed means test looks at your income and expenses.

What you keep

North Carolina's exemptions protect many filers' essentials — equity in a home and a vehicle, household goods, and retirement accounts — within statutory limits.
