"I never thought I would file for bankruptcy." I hear this from potential clients every day. No one makes bankruptcy their goal. I wouldn't represent them if they did. My name is Michelle Kainen, and I practice bankruptcy law in Vermont and New Hampshire.
This past year was like nothing I had seen before. Our government spent billions of taxpayer dollars to bail out the banks. Meanwhile, these same banks have raised interest rates and refused to negotiate with those who want to repay their debt. People are angry, and they have a right to be angry. There was no bailout for the average American family. They continue to struggle. For many, bankruptcy is their bailout. It is an opportunity for a fresh start and to take back control over your finances.
I file more than a hundred cases annually in Vermont and New Hampshire. Each year I travel to national bankruptcy programs to learn the latest techniques. I am a frequent speaker at programs for attorneys and other professionals in the area of consumer bankruptcy.
Call me to schedule an apppointment to determine whether bankruptcy might be the right choice for you. I look forward to meeting you!
