Creditor Harassment
A lawyer can stop creditor harassment. Once you file for bankruptcy all collection attempts by creditors must cease. A lawyer may also prevent a creditor from attempting illegal collection methods. Collection agencies are paid a percentage of what they collect, therefore the more they collect the more they get paid. Because the industry is based on this commission sometimes the only way you can stop creditor harassment is through legal action.
