Bankruptcy is a complex area of practice, requiring knowledge of both federal and state law. There are significant deadlines mandated by the Federal Rules and Local Rules, which if missed can bar certain rights and relief. Our New Jersey bankruptcy attorneys have more than 20 years experience representing both debtors and creditors in Chapter 7, Chapter 11, and Chapter 13 bankruptcy proceedings in all 3 federal court districts in Newark [13], Trenton [14], and Camden [15].
