Once you have decided that you need to seek professional advice concerning your financial situation your next daunting task is to choose a bankruptcy lawyer. Choosing a competent bankruptcy attorney can be difficult since Illinois does not recognize legal specialization or certify that lawyers are competent to practice in a certain area of the law, such as bankruptcy. How then do you choose an attorney who concentrates their practices in the area of bankruptcy law? The Law Offices of C. David Ward does concentrate its practice in the bankruptcy area.

• You can of course ask others who have filed bankruptcy; you can seek out advertisements in the paper or telephone book; you can ask other lawyers who they would suggest; you can call the local bar association and ask for a list of lawyers who deal in bankruptcy law; or you can seek out information on the internet.

• Once you have found a bankruptcy attorney or firm that concentrates its practice solely in the bankruptcy law area, how do you choose? We would suggest that you meet with the attorney personally to see:
  • If you think they know the law
  • If they have handled other cases like yours
  • If they are willing to listen to your concerns
  • If they explain the bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy options to your satisfaction
  • If they explain the types of bankruptcies available to you
  • If they explain the bankruptcy process and your involvement in the process so that you understand it
  • If they explain the costs, expenses, attorneys' fees and payment to your satisfaction
  •  Seven Step Process
