Bankruptcy

In the event that a person feels their financial position may be such that they can no longer meet their financial commitments, we advise clients on whether personal bankruptcy is a suitable option or whether alternative measures may be considered. Today, personal bankruptcy has less of a social stigma attached to it and, in some cases, can give a person the vision to start afresh.  It can however have disadvantages.  We explain these to clients so that they can reach a balanced decision on how they should deal and proceed with difficult financial issues.
