Michigan Bankruptcy Attorney Walter Metzen & Associates located in Detroit

Board Certified Michigan Consumer Bankruptcy Specialist

My name is Walter Metzen. I am a Board Certified Michigan Consumer Bankruptcy attorney who exclusively practices consumer bankruptcy law in the metro Detroit area. Over the past 20+ years that I have practiced Bankruptcy law, I have helped well over 10,000 people in Wayne, Oakland and Macomb Counties get through difficult financial problems with the help of a bankruptcy filing in United States Bankruptcy Court.

The Bankruptcy Laws are United States laws provided for in the US Constitution. For all of metro Detroit, there is one bankruptcy Court located in downtown Detroit at 211 West Fort Street, Detroit. Anyone who files a bankruptcy petition in the tri-county area or Jackson, Lenawee, Monroe, Sanilac, St. Clair or Washtenaw Counties must file their case in the Detroit Court.

If you are a person or married couple considering filing in a bankruptcy case and live in one of these counties, it makes sense that you should hire a law firm that has practiced exclusively in this Detroit Bankruptcy Court for 20+ years. We are very familiar with the specific requirements of this courts clerks, Judges and Trustees. Me and my staff have a very good working relationship with all of the people in this court system and have a very good reputation for excellent client service and have virtually a 100% success rate for a typical Chapter 7 filing.

Bankruptcy will eliminate:

Credit Card Debt
Medical bills
Past due utility bills
Utility Shut offs
Car repossessions
Lines of Credit
Payday Advance loans
Foreclosures
Repossessions

In times when consumer debt is at an all time high, even the affluent can be confronted by overwhelming debt as a result of a loss of a job, death of a family member, or severe illness. Filing bankruptcy will immediately get the creditors off your back. With Chapter 7, most debts are able to be discharged or wiped out completely. In Chapter 13, a payment plan will be offered to your creditors paying a percentage of the debt back based on what you can afford. Either way, your financial situation will be greatly improved.
