Overwhelmed by Debt, Central Virginians Are Given a Helping Hand by Bankruptcy Firm

Charlottesville, VA, October 06, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Louisa Bankruptcy, an experienced debt relief law firm of specialized bankruptcy lawyers, is extending its outreach to include Charlottesville, Culpepper, Madison, Orange, and surrounding counties of central Virginia, in response to the steep rise in personal bankruptcy filings over the past several years. The firm will also offer a free, in person or over the phone consultation in order to help bring relief to those who need bankruptcy help.

Steven Sharreff, bankruptcy attorney and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy specialist who founded Louisa Bankruptcy over 25 years ago, says "People who once felt truly comfortable with their finances now find themselves unemployed and behind on their mortgages. We offer a free consultation, where you can learn about the process in detail, understand what your options are and discuss your situation with an experienced attorney whose only goal is help you get back on your feet."

According to the Wall Street Journal, the number of Americans filing for personal bankruptcy rose by nearly a third in 2009 due to the recession, which has barely slowed in the following two years. One in every 570 housing units received a foreclosure filing in August, 2011. To address these statistics, Steven Shareff and Louisa Bankruptcy also offer Bankruptcy consulting and foreclosure consulting.
