Woodland Hills Creditor Rights Lawyer

Creditors Have Rights — We Protect Them

At The Law Offices of Michael H. Raichelson, we say we represent honest debtors and creditors that are being challenged by dishonest debtors. Bankruptcy litigation is not only about the rights of the person or business that is filing for bankruptcy. Creditors have rights before, and after, a bankruptcy proceeding has begun.

At The Law Offices of Michael H. Raichelson in Woodland Hills, California, our lawyers fight on behalf of creditors who seek to claw back money and assets due to them when debtors fail to pay. Just because a debtor claims he or she cannot pay, it does not mean that person should not, or cannot do so.

Our law firm is dedicated to helping your business or organization hold dishonest debtors accountable — call us today.

San Fernando Valley Creditor Representation Attorney

Generous federal bankruptcy laws give debtors many tools to keep creditors from collecting money for mortgage payments, purchases of goods and services, vehicles and other assets. However, the existence of these laws does not mean creditors are without legal rights when they seek to collect what is owed to them.

Our law firm serves the needs of our creditor clients in various ways during bankruptcies, including:

  • Filing proofs of claim within statutory deadlines
  • Filing writs of attachment to freeze debtors' assets during legal action (to prevent debtors from hiding or using assets during litigation)
  • Negotiating with debtors to secure payment
  • Bringing adversary proceedings against debtors
  • Bringing relief of stay actions to allow foreclosure of a property or collection of debt
  • Seeking enforcement of judgments by leveraging court procedures

Corporate Collections — Debt Collections

Sometimes firms need to collect money from other businesses or persons who owe them money. Chapter 11 or Chapter 13 that allow businesses or individuals to reorganize do not necessarily allow them to ignore their financial obligations altogether.

Our lead attorney's extensive experience in complex litigation and bankruptcy has positioned him to effectively investigate, and litigate, business claims for payment against other businesses. He is familiar with legal maneuvers designed to obfuscate, hide or prevent our clients from collecting their dues, and he has the experience to counter them effectively.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
  • I was in a really horrible place financially after the collapse of my business due to the economic recession. A friend referred me to the law offices of Michael Raichelson. At the very first meeting Mr. Raichelson put me at ease, assessed my situation and informed me that bankruptcy was the best option and told me he would guide me through the entire process. Everything went so smoothly and I'm so grateful to Michael and his staff for their support and successful resolution of my case. 'm now off to a brand new start and life! R.B
  • If you are going through a bankruptcy this is the attorney to use. He is a thorough, caring and most of all a patient attorney who knows how to get the job done with no surprises. I highly recommend him and would hire him again. N.K.
  • We are extremely satisfied with how Mike handled our case. After consulting with numerous lawyers about our bankruptcy filing, we picked Mike because he proposed a bankruptcy filing strategy for our situation that was most favorable to us than other's proposal. He is knowledgeable, professional, courteous, responsive and got the job done quickly. He completely looked after our best interest and delivered results as he had promised from the initial consultation.

  • When my husband became permanently disabled and unable to work any longer we were devastated. We had bills, like every American does, that were not going to be able to be paid with the loss of income. When I found out that I was going to be laid off from my job we didn't know what we were going to do. After speaking to an attorney locally I was very discouraged and didn't think we were going to have any hope at all with our bills. I then looked online and found Michael Raichelson. My husband and I went to speak with him and boy did he put our mind at ease. We left his office feeling that there was hope and a way out. He was the biggest help in making us feel assured that all was going to be okay. The process was fast and painless and I believe this was due to the professionalism and good work of Michael and his firm. We were blessed to have found Michael and even further blessed to get the help we needed.

  • To Whom it May Concern:
  • As clients of Michael H. Raichelson, my wife and I are extremely pleased to recommend his services.
  • When we first met Michael, our situation was pretty grim. Health problems, unemployment, and a drastic drop in the value of our house had turned our lives upside down. We just couldn't pay our bills.
  • Credit counseling and our research on the internet made it clear that bankruptcy was inevitable. What wasn't clear was what bankruptcy would mean for us. We felt like we were being pushed over the edge and would lose everything. Fortunately, that's when we were referred to Michael.
  • Michael understood what we were going through. Due to his experience with the court where we had to file and his knowledge of current, real-world conditions with creditors and banks, he was able to explain exactly what would happen and when. After our first meeting, we felt like a tremendous physical weight had been lifted from our shoulders. We felt like we were in control of our lives again.
  • Today, everything has unfolded just as Michael had told us it would. We are debt free and enjoying a fresh start. We strongly urge anyone faced with bankruptcy to have Michael help them as he has helped us.
    Sincerely,
    R.F.D
