Woodland Hills Relief of Stay Lawyer

'Staying Away' Is Not the Only Option for Creditors

When people file for bankruptcy, they can try to stop a creditor's efforts to collect on outstanding debts.

The "automatic stay," which the Bankruptcy Code gives individuals and businesses that file for bankruptcy, is a powerful tool. Once a party files bankruptcy, it essentially halts any debt collection process in its tracks and thwarts — at least temporarily — creditors' abilities to collect on debts owed to them, enforce a judgment or garnish debtor's wages in an effort to be compensated.

Protecting Creditor's Rights — West Valley Automatic Bankruptcy Stay Attorney

At The Law Offices of Michael H. Raichelson in Woodland Hills, California, we represent clients who believe they have legitimate reasons to make a request to a bankruptcy judge to lift an automatic stay. Our experienced bankruptcy attorney can ensure that your rights as a creditor are respected in bankruptcy court.

We assist creditors who seek to protect their rights by:

  • Continuing a foreclosure action after a bankruptcy is filed
  • Ensuring that a debtor continues to make payments during a bankruptcy proceeding
  • Preserving the value of property by seeking to evict a destructive tenant
  • Lifting the automatic stay so that a repossession can be completed

After filing a motion for relief, our experienced relief of stay lawyer will follow through and get the stay lifted. Attorney Raichelson will prove to the court that the debtor has truly fallen behind on his or her mortgage payments, is delinquent in paying an auto loan or is otherwise providing a legal reason for a stay to be lifted.

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
