Los Angeles and Orange County Attorneys

Dedicated to representing consumers for personal injury and workers compensation accidents and Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

Bankruptcy?

In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, people and companies are allowed to cancel most (or all) of their debts. The 2005 Bankruptcy reform laws only added some new requirements such as: attend credit counseling class and a course on personal financial management, attach pay-stubs (if you have a job) and submit a copy of your last income tax return (if you are required to file one).

The Chapter 7 is based on some of the oldest and most powerful laws created during the formation of our country. After all, some of the founding fathers were bankrupt after financing and supporting the revolution; and our new government figured they didn't deserve time in debtors prison (based on the English system).

The Chapter 7 helps even the paying field for consumers and businesses and is designed to provide a fresh start. The whole Chapter 7 process takes about 6 months, requires payment of a $299 filing fee to the court, in addition to legal fees based on the complexity of the case. Frequently debtors do not see the inside of a court room.

By filing for Chapter 7, you are technically placing the property you own and the debts that you owe, in the hands of the court, which is administered by the U.S. Trustee's Office. For a more information and detailed step-by-step explanation of the Chapter 7 process, please call our office for a free consultation.

Injured in an auto accident?

The California personal injury attorneys at The Harmon Firm, APC, know how to get you the best compensation possible. Attorneys with many years of experience, will negotiate settlements with insurance companies, arrange for mediation to resolve contentious issues, or litigate in court to maximize the damage award you deserve. If you need a lawyer to help you obtain recompense for your car accident, serious third party, or industrial injuries, contact the personal injury lawyers at The Harmon Firm, APC. The Harmon Firm provides individualized services that focuses on individuals needs.

Personal injury cases are now mainly evaluated by insurance company software. This means that the insurance company representative has lost controlling the value of the case to a computer. Today's personal injury lawyer should recognize this shift and be prepared to communicate with the insurance company's "adjusting software" in order to maximize settlement money. We have the latest software to properly communicate with insurance companies to facilitate settlement.

Hurt on the job?

The attorneys at The Harmon Firm, APC, are experienced in workers’ compensation law. California’s workers’ compensation laws changed in 2004, making it potentially more difficult for California workers to receive compensation for their injuries. Because of these changes, many attorneys in the Southern California region no longer handle workers’ comp cases. Despite the changes to the law, the lawyers at The Harmon Firm, APC, remain dedicated to helping victims of workplace accidents secure the largest award possible and maximize benefits under California’s workers’ compensation statutes.
