Two Convenient Locations to Better Serve Our Washington Neighbors
Reach out to our bankruptcy attorneys and legal assistants that can explain how to erase your secured and unsecured debts forever.
With all the free resources in our current world, you may be thinking, “Why should I spend money on an attorney when I can just look it up on the internet?” There have been many people already drowning in debt who thought the same. After all, if you already owe a lot of money, it makes no sense to spend what little you have on an attorney.
Here’s the thing: the US bankruptcy code is pretty complex. An hour or so looking up how to file for bankruptcy is no match for around 25 years of helping over a thousand clients through their bankruptcy cases. Suppose you make a mistake. In that case, the bankruptcy court can deny your petition, and you’re in no better position than before.
Patrick McBurney has extensive legal knowledge and experience for a smooth bankruptcy process. We won’t just leave you alone to drown in paperwork; we’ll help you through each step.

Bankruptcy is one option many United States citizens have for debt relief. You can think of it as a reset button on your finances. If you’re crippled by student loans, credit card debt, and medical bills, a bankruptcy filing can free you from these financial obligations and get a second chance.
After you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay will be put in place. This court order stops and prevents collection efforts, like calls from creditors, lawsuits, or wage garnishment.
Depending on your bankruptcy chapter, you can receive a discharge after the bankruptcy. A discharge in bankruptcy gets rid of your personal responsibility to pay off these debts. Not all debts can be eliminated this way, so it’s best to ask a knowledgeable bankruptcy attorney to be sure.
Not all debts can be eliminated in bankruptcy. We’ll provide a brief overview of the more common ones. Note that this is not a comprehensive list, so you may need to consult a Spokane bankruptcy lawyer if you have more questions.
What happens during your bankruptcy depends on what bankruptcy chapter you choose.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a quick way to eliminate your debt without paying your creditors. A bankruptcy trustee deals with your debt by selling your nonexempt assets.
With a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you can take all your debts and gather them into a 3-5 year repayment plan. It’s essentially a way for you to catch up on your missed payments.
