Practice Areas Description

Joseph C. McDaniel, P.C., helps clients in the following areas of bankruptcy law:

- Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Chapter 7 bankruptcy, also known as "fresh start" bankruptcy, provides debt relief for honest people who are being crushed by overwhelming debt. Many people, from white-collar professionals to blue-collar auto workers, find themselves unable to keep up with credit card, medical or other debts after experiencing job loss, illness, divorce or other circumstances beyond their control. If this is your situation, Chapter 7 bankruptcy can be an effective method of discharging most of your debt, giving you the fresh start you need. In addition, you will be able to keep your house, car and retirement savings in most cases.

- Chapter 11 Bankruptcy

Many businesses have been hit hard by the recent economic downturn. Many businesses struggle to meet tax, payroll or other debt obligations — and many find they have fallen too far behind to catch up without having to terminate operations. When faced with this option, Chapter 11 bankruptcy may be your best option for relief. Chapter 11 bankruptcy allows large businesses to restructuring debt and continuing operations under a plan of reorganization supervised by the bankruptcy court. At the Phoenix law office of Joseph C. McDaniel, P.C., we will help you understand your rights, options and obligations under Chapter 11 and determine if it is the right choice for your business.
