Why Do I Need an Attorney to File Bankruptcy in New Jersey?

While there is no legal requirement for you to have a lawyer representing you in a bankruptcy proceeding, there are countless practical reasons that it would be to your benefit. There is a lot riding on your bankruptcy, and the process can be extremely complex. Errors in your initial petition can cause unnecessary delays and may even get your request for bankruptcy protection denied.

Having an experienced New Jersey bankruptcy attorney representing you throughout the process helps to ensure that your interests are protected to the fullest extent possible. I am attorney Joel R. Spivack, and I have been practicing law in South Jersey for more than 30 years. I have dedicated my entire career to bankruptcy law. I don’t do anything else.
