Michael Benavides<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

My name is Michael Benavdies and I’m a Sonoma County bankruptcy attorney. My goal is to make bankruptcy as easy as possible for my clients.\u00a0 I start by meeting with you\u00a0for a free consultation. \u00a0During the consultation I explain the differences between chapter 7<\/a> and chapter 13 bankruptcy<\/a>. \u00a0If bankruptcy is in your best interest I will give you a quote for representation. \u00a0If you’re ready to move forward right away we can order a 3-source credit report and start the paperwork in my\u00a0office. Even if you’re unsure whether you should file bankruptcy call me today at (707) 200-6688<\/strong> for free advice over the phone.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You Deserve A Fresh Start<\/h2>\n

The Bankruptcy Code is part of Federal Law and is designed to give people\u00a0like you a fresh start. \u00a0By eliminating burdensome debt people can\u00a0rebuild their credit, obtain financing and make purchases which keep our economy growing. \u00a0If you’ve incurred debt you cannot repay you can turn to a Santa Rosa bankruptcy lawyer for a fresh start.<\/p>\n

The First Step<\/h2>\n

Your path to debt relief begins by calling my office at (707) 200-6688<\/strong> to schedule a free consultation. \u00a0During your free consultation I can answer your questions and explore your debt relief options. \u00a0There is absolutely no obligation to hire me by attending a free consultation. \u00a0After I have answered your questions and recommended a course of action you can either retain my services or\u00a0take some time to weigh your options. \u00a0If you’re ready to move forward we can begin the paperwork right away. \u00a0Also, I can begin to take your collection calls to keep the creditors off your back.<\/p>\n

The Petition<\/h2>\n

I’m not a psychic so I will need some information from you. \u00a0Specifically, you will need to complete my “Bankruptcy Workbook” which asks you basic questions about your assets, debts and transactions. \u00a0Your answers will help me draft your bankruptcy petition, schedules and statements. \u00a0After I have drafted the required documents you will sign 40-50 pages that will be filed with the court. \u00a0Once your petition is filed I will notify any aggressive creditors of the automatic stay to ensure that no adverse collection action is taken during your bankruptcy.<\/p>\n

Personal Representation<\/h2>\n

You will be represented during the meeting of creditors by an attorney<\/a>. \u00a0We don’t hire “appearance” attorneys to represent you like many larger firms. \u00a0In practice, attorney Michael Benavides or I\u00a0personally appear at the meeting of creditors and sit next to you during the whole process. \u00a0In short, when you retain our firm you are ensuring that you will be personally represented by an attorney throughout your bankruptcy.<\/p>\n

About Me<\/h2>\n

I practice consumer bankruptcy law in Santa Rosa<\/a>, California. \u00a0Unlike many larger firms I take a limited number of clients each month to ensure that I deliver personal representation. \u00a0When you call my\u00a0office you will speak with an attorney, not a paralegal or secretary. \u00a0If you questions\u00a0you will\u00a0get answers from your lawyer right away. \u00a0Better yet, I\u00a0don’t charge $3,000 to represent you in\u00a0chapter 7 bankruptcy like some other Sonoma County bankruptcy lawyers. \u00a0My office makes every attempt to keep our fees affordable for Sonoma County clients. \u00a0If we cannot offer a price that you can afford we can refer you to a more cost-effective bankruptcy lawyer.<\/p>\n
