People often ask me if the trustee or Judge is going to yell at them or be mean to them. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Bankruptcy is a law of equity, meaning, it is designed to be fair to the debtor’s and creditors. The goal is to get folks back on their feet and contribute to society. Our forefathers built this country on small business, trial and error, inventions and other risk taking adventures. They had to file Bankruptcy. Without it we would not be here.
