We help individuals and couples file Chapter 7 and 13 bankruptcies in the Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of New York in the Syracuse and Utica divisions. We have filed over 7,500 bankruptcy cases since 1994. I am the only Certified Bankruptcy Attorney certified by the American Board of Certifications in these divisions. The following language is required by NYS Ethical Rules, DR 2-105(C)1. "The American Board of Certification is not affiliated with any governmental authority. Certification is not a requirement for the practice of law in the State of New York and does not necessarily indicate greater competence than other attorneys experienced in this field of law." I have also been rated as Excellent by AVVO. My firm (this and prior firms) has filed more bankruptcy cases in the Northern District of New York, Syracuse and Utica division than any other law firm. Our firm has spent tens of thousands of dollars on the most sophisticated bankruptcy software program available which provides several dozens of checklists to make sure we do each case correctly.
We have locations to meet with clients in Syracuse, Utica, Binghamton, Watertown, Oneonta, Norwich, Oneida, Oswego, Cortland, Auburn, and Herkimer, NY
