What the Video Covers

Arturo R. Alfonso has helped individuals and families across Miami-Dade County with bankruptcy for 30 years. In the video he walks through the options most people ask about first. Each one has its own page on this site:

• Chapter 7 bankruptcy, which can wipe out most unsecured debt such as credit cards and medical bills (see who qualifies and which debts are wiped out)
• Chapter 13 bankruptcy, a three- to five-year repayment plan that lets you keep your property and can stop a foreclosure sale
• The automatic stay, which goes into effect the moment your case is filed and stops collection calls and lawsuits and wage garnishments
• Florida’s bankruptcy exemptions, which protect a qualifying homestead and most retirement accounts

Video Transcript

Hi, I’m Arturo Alfonso, a bankruptcy attorney here in Miami. For thirty years, I have helped individuals and families across Miami-Dade get out from under debt they could not pay, and start over. If you are behind on bills, facing a garnishment, or worried about losing your home or your car, you have options. Chapter 7 can wipe out most unsecured debt, like credit cards and medical bills. Chapter 13 lets you keep your property and catch up over three to five years, and it can stop a foreclosure sale. The moment your case is filed, the automatic stay goes into effect and stops collection calls, lawsuits, and garnishments. And Florida’s exemptions protect a lot, including a qualifying homestead and most retirement accounts.

Before anything is filed, I review your income, your property, and your timing with you. If bankruptcy is not the right step, I will tell you before you pay a filing fee. I handle your case myself, from the first review to the discharge, and I attend the meeting of creditors with you. And we can do all of it in English or Spanish. Se habla español.

Your first fifteen minutes are free and confidential. Call my office at (305) 266-9584, or visit arturoalfonsolaw.com to request a call. I will get back to you within one business day. I look forward to helping you get your fresh start.
