Kell C. Mercer, P.C., can guide you and your business through the most challenging financial situations. With over 20 years’ experience in bankruptcy law, I have the skill, experience and resources you need if you are considering business bankruptcy – and as a solo practitioner, I can provide intelligent and creative solutions free from the bureaucratic processes that often impede innovation.

When bankruptcy is the right option for your business, I can guide you through the process and help you make the right decisions. I will thoroughly analyze your situation – including the scope of assets involved, the level of debt, the amount of cash flow, the future prospects of your business and the tax issues involved – and implement pre- and post-filing strategies that can help you obtain true debt relief.

In addition to representing businesses in bankruptcy, I also provide Chapter 11 bankruptcy services for individuals. And if you’re a business owner, we can discuss whether filing for business bankruptcy, rather than personal bankruptcy, is a viable option for you.

Practices:

• BUSINESS BANKRUPTCY
  Chapter 11, Chapter 7, Asset sales, preference and fraudulent transfer litigation, adversary proceedings.
• COMMERCIAL LITIGATION
  Fraud, breach of contract, business torts, construction, telecommunication, bond and lien claims, collections.

Texas Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Attorney

Our services include Chapter 7 bankruptcy filings and Chapter 13 bankruptcy filings. Both are viable options for combating creditor harassment and threats of foreclosure, repossession or garnishment, as well as providing you with a legal remedy to help you deal with bills that are out of control. Our lawyer will help you decide which option is right for you.

We are an Austin-area bankruptcy law office, serving Travis County, Williamson County, Hays County, Bastrop County, and Burnet County. We offer Chapter 13 filings for no money down except court costs and credit report fees (for qualified wage earners), and Chapter 7 filings to fit your budget. We can help you figure out which option is right for you.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy allows you to have a fresh start — meaning that upon the discharge of your Chapter 7, bankruptcy most debts are cancelled. (Typical exceptions include tax obligations, child support, and student loans, unless the court rules otherwise.)

Types of debts that are dischargeable in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy include: credit cards, medical bills, payday loans, signature loans, and past due utility bills. You can also typically maintain secured debt, such as your home and your car, as long as you remain current on your obligations to those creditors.

A Chapter 13 Bankruptcy allows you to pay off your debts over time, keep your home and your car, and protect yourself from creditors. The typical repayment plan ranges between three to five years. You make you first plan payment 30 days from filing and every 30 days thereafter to a Chapter 13 Trustee, appointed by the Bankruptcy Court to administer your case.

Although bankruptcy may be the best solution in many situations, there are other options for dealing with debt, such as debt negotiation, offers in compromise, and mortgage foreclosure defense. A good bankruptcy attorney will discuss all alternatives with you.

If you are struggling to pay your bills, call me for a free consultation. If creditors are harassing you, I can help you put a stop to it. Even if your home is in foreclosure, it may not be too late to save it. I will listen to you and help you find the answer that best fits your situation. If you are facing wage garnishment, creditor harassment, liens, or other debt problems, don’t wait to get relief.

OUR PRACTICE AREAS:

• CHAPTER 7 & 13
  The rules relating to the discharge of tax debts are more liberal in Chapter 13 bankruptcy cases than Chapter 7 bankruptcy cases.
• FORECLOSURE DEFENSE
  Note that if you are behind on making your payments, filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy will delay but not permanently prevent a repossession or foreclosure.
• IRS TAX RESOLUTION
  Tax claims (as well as all other debts) are classified as secured, priority or general unsecured debts.

When debt takes control of your life, it can feel overwhelming. Even hardworking and honest people can fall victim to the vicious cycle of credit card payments, medical bills, mortgages, child support payments and alimony. While practicing fiscal responsibility might help you prepare for some unexpected events, hardships like job loss, divorce and injuries are sometimes unavoidable.

In situations like these, being on the receiving end of creditor harassment and compounding interest payments can feel like unfair and unwarranted punishment. I’m attorney Sean T. Flynn, a personal bankruptcy lawyer with over a decade of experience serving the Central Texas area. I believe in helping ordinary people overcome the extraordinary difficulties that life can sometimes throw at us.
