I devote my practice to bankruptcy and continually keep current with the challenges of bankruptcy and diverse situations that arise.   This is evident by virtue of my Board Certification status.

Board Certification guarantees clients that I continually pass rigorous testing, demonstrated by my bankruptcy knowledge and case results, to meet the strict requirements of the ABC. Only one other bankruptcy lawyer is Board Certified in Consumer Bankruptcy Law in Northern New Jersey.
