We have concentrated our practice on consumer bankruptcy matters since 1990, including Chapter 7 (liquidation) and Chapter 13 (reorganization). We will also help you explore alternatives to bankruptcy. If you are considering a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing, we can refer you to qualified counsel.

He has been located in his Castro Valley office since 1977, and has been serving Tuolumne and Calaveras counties since 1988.
At our offices, we strive to bring the most value to you as we move through the bankruptcy process. Our goal is to help you get a fresh start by eliminating as much of your debt as possible while protecting as many of your assets as we can.
To help us be more cost-effective and efficient, we ask that you prepare for your first meeting with us, gathering as much information as possible, including recent pay stubs, income and deduction records, a list of your creditors and a copy of your most recent federal tax return. At our first meeting, we will review your situation, provide you with an assessment of your options, and give you the information required to complete the Congressionally mandated credit counseling course.
We have a comprehensive understanding of the changes brought about by the 2005 bankruptcy law and its recent updates. We can help you determine whether you meet the standards to file for discharge of your debt under Chapter 7. We are also familiar with non-bankruptcy alternatives, including your rights under the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act.
To set up a meeting to discuss your bankruptcy needs or alternatives to bankruptcy, contact us or call our office at 510-886-5751 (in Castro Valley) or 209-586-0250 (in Twain Harte). We keep flexible hours at our Castro Valley office and schedule weekend appointments at our Twain Harte office.
