Job losses, family issues, poor health, and other problems can all combine to leave you with bills you are simply unable to pay. If you find yourself in this situation, do not be too hard on yourself. The system is structured in such a way that it is easy to get in over your head and almost impossible to get caught up once you fall behind. Fortunately, Macomb County bankruptcy lawyer Karen E. Evangelista is here to help. She works with people who are overwhelmed with debt so that they can get the fresh start they need.    

Struggling With Debt?

Most of us rely on credit and loans to buy the things we need in life. According to Money.com, the average person owes anywhere between $65,000 and $150,000 in outstanding debts. When unexpected issues arise, you can easily find yourself falling behind. As a result, it begins a cycle that is hard to break:

• You fall behind on one or more of your monthly payments;
• The bank or credit card company imposes finance charges and penalty fees;
• You face harassing credit collections calls and legal actions, such as liens, repossessions, and shut off notices for utilities. 
• Higher monthly payments and penalties stretch your existing income, causing you to incur additional debts;
• You continue to fall behind, and your credit score suffers. 

As an experienced Macomb County bankruptcy lawyer, Karen E. Evangelista deals with clients facing this type of financial crisis on a regular basis. It can happen as a result of unexpected drops in income or due to a divorce or the death of a loved one. Medical bills due to accidental injuries or illnesses and tax debts can also cause you to fall behind. Whatever the reason, we act as a reliable ally, helping you find a solution to your financial problems while making sure your rights are protected.
