Opis

Today's economy is a volatile one. Many hardworking people with good jobs simply cannot make ends meet the way they could years ago, no matter what they do or how hard they try. Companies are failing at an alarming rate, and people are losing their jobs. What are they to do? For many people, the solution is bankruptcy. Although bankruptcy was once considered a shameful word, today it is often an intelligent decision for people to dig themselves out of a financial hole and to have the fresh start they deserve. But what is bankruptcy really? How do you go about filing for it, and what does it mean for you, your family, and your business? For many people, facing bankruptcy or even thinking about the process is terrifying and confusing. There are certainly a lot of questions involved with bankruptcy and often no good place to get the answers. What should you do if you are facing bankruptcy? How can you be sure you are getting the right advice if you don't fully understand the process? Now paralegal Betty Anne Grillo explains it to you, simply and clearly, in her informative new book, Bankruptcy From A to Z: The Path to Financial Hope and Freedom. Grillo is knowledgeable about the process, with over eighteen years of experience as a paralegal. She knows the terminology and has worked with numerous clients, empowering and educating them. She can tell you what to look for when hiring an attorney, and just as important, what to avoid. Clearly and inspirationally written, this book shows you how to interview and choose a lawyer, and then fully participate in the legal process. She also investigates the issues you might be facing, breaking them down so that even someone without a high school diploma can understand them. Acting as cheerleader, guide, and inspirational teacher, Grillo explains what to expect before, during, and after the entire bankruptcy process. She also transforms confusing legal jargon into a language that anyone can grasp. Packed with pointers, the book also has many hands-on tools you can use to turn what is surely a tough situation into a positive one. Put fear and guilt behind you, emphasizes Grillo. You need to stop worrying over what might happen and instead focus on what is actually happening and how you can be in control of it. There's no shame in the process and, in fact, you should feel pride in taking the financial situation in hand and doing something about it.
