Don't Get Overwhelmed with Changing Laws!

As the economy continues to stagger here in the United States, and especially in northern Colorado, more people are needing the fresh start a bankruptcy filing can provide.  Some people are tempted to try and file the paperwork and go through the procedure on their own.  This is an issue for those who try and do this.  We have all heard about being penny wise and pound foolish…  meaning that sometimes the most crucial thing you can do is to know how to wisely guard your assests more than simply never spending.  Watching pennies as dollars slip through your fingers.

Bankruptcy attorneys in Fort Collins have to keep up on Colorado laws, which can change at any time and affect your filing.  Laws change.  This is why you want an attorney protecting your interests.  One individual we know of had a condo and they listed the condo as one of their assets in their declaration of assets.  The thing they forgot to do was to also list their $20,000 parking space.  They kept their condo, yes they did much of it right.  They lost the parking…  In order to save about $750 (the difference between the cost of their filing and what our fees would have been), they lost a $20,000 asset.
