(EMAILWIRE.COM, April 26, 2011 ) Southfield, Michigan – In the age of a bleak Detroit and a changing city the residents of Michigan are looking for answers. There is a mass Exodus occurring in the streets of Detroit and at the time of this writing there is an influx of raw sewage being pumped into East Side Detroit homes. The time might be right to bail or to seek bankruptcy. This is a very serious time in Metro Detroit and one bankruptcy lawyer is lending his expertise to aid the public’s concerns.
Facing something as grave as bankruptcy is a very touchy subject. This is a major step for Michigan families. Clark Law, PLLC has put together a website that addresses some of the major myths and misconceptions about filing for bankruptcy. The website is designed to handle the most common calls that the Michigan based office receives on a daily basis. There are no confusing forms to fill out and anybody can logon and get straight forward information.
Among the many topics the Michigan based law firm addresses is the concept of harassment from creditors. There is a serious misconception that creditors will not stop in harassing your family once you declare bankruptcy. The message from Clark Law, PLLC is that this is entirely untrue. The minute you file bankruptcy, the Bankruptcy Court issues an order called the automatic stay. The automatic stay tells all of your creditors to leave you alone, or else. It is issued pursuant to United States Code 11, Section 362.
The automatic stay protects you from any and all collections actions. After you file bankruptcy, the creditor is not even allowed to talk to call or write to you. In addition, the creditor must stop any collection attempts already started. The automatic stay is very powerful. It is enforced by the United States' Courts and it makes sure your creditors leave you alone. If creditors violate the Automatic Stay, they can be severely sanctioned and penalized by the court.
Now you can fight back with the rights that you have. As a consumer and a resident of the State of Michigan you deserve to know you are protected under the law. That is what this website is designed to do. You can logon and get real black and white information with no fluff.
