Brock & Scott, PLLC provides services to creditors faced with the daunting task of protecting their rights when a bankruptcy petition is filed. Our experienced attorneys and staff will ensure, to the greatest extent possible, debtors are not able to evade their liabilities and obligations to our clients. Creditors who have taken care to obtain collateral that protects the debt owed to them are generally afforded the most protection. However, with or without collateral, do not assume you have no recourse and will never be paid simply because an individual or an entity files bankruptcy. Protect your rights.

When a petition is filed with the federal bankruptcy courts, the debtor is afforded a comprehensive blanket of protection known as the “stay”. This prevents the entire world from taking any action against the debtor or the debtor’s property without the permission of the federal court. And it takes an experienced and keen sense to recognize if the liability is one worth pursuing. For a creditor trying to navigate through this alone, it can be a minefield of wasted time, wasted money, disappointment, and possibly federal sanctions and fines. The results can be quite devastating, especially when considered with the possible elimination of the original debt.

Our attorneys have experience from both creditor and debtor perspectives in bankruptcy. They can lead you through the mine fields….without misleading you. Do not give up on the liability which is owed to you. And do not waste more valuable resources pursuing a debt you will never recover. Let Brock & Scott, PLLC do your minesweeping.
