Bankruptcy

Other Lawyers Have Built Educational Consumer Bankruptcy Law Videos, Too!

By Joseph McDaniel, Esq.

That is, a potential bankruptcy debtor under either Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 or Chapter 11 will pop some popcorn, get some soda, and then watch ten hours of educational videos about bankruptcy law in her home state, and learn how it all works, and better understand his personal consumer bankruptcy options and bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy alternatives.

And that will be magnificent!

I am always delighted when clients visit with me for the first time and know the answers to the questions I ask in my homework, which are primarily simple questions about the values of assets and the amounts of debt and income, and have read enough of the most asked questions I have in my homework so that we can move forward.

Because then the initial client discussions are much more useful to the potential client.

Soon I plan to have a lot of my blog entries turned into videos, and I'm planning on buying something my current consumer and small business bankruptcy videos do not have today: something called production values!

That is, I'd love it if potential clients could actually see me talk, hear me talk, and generally not need to squint and cup their ears to keep up with the bankruptcy videos.

Most of my upcoming consumer bankruptcy videos are still a twinkle in my eye, so I'm looking around the internet to see if other experienced and qualified bankruptcy attorneys have bankruptcy videos that I can use as a stopgap to educate my potential bankruptcy clients.

So here's one of those videos by an experienced bankruptcy lawyer who isn't me; and I don't know if James Moroney is board certified in bankruptcy law as a specialist, or is rated AV by Martindale peer review, or if he is rated 10 by AVVO.com; and in this context, I don't care.

What I care about is that he was willing to share some experiences his clients have had over many years of bankruptcy practice.

And like the bunny, he keeps going!

So until my videos are back from editing, enjoy the consumer bankruptcy videos from Jim Moroney; I'll post more when I get a Round Tuit!

And note that this consumer bankruptcy video is the beginning of a tutorial on the dreaded means test, and that's important to know about if you are considering bankruptcy in Arizona. The numbers won't be identical, because the means test considers the means test in the location where you live.

But here you go, with the first part of a means test tutorial:

NOTHING HERE CONSTITUTES LEGAL ADVICE RE A CHAPTER 7, CHAPTER 13, CHAPTER 11, OR CHAPTER 12. FIND AN ARIZONA BANKRUPTCY LAWYER WHO IS BOARD CERTIFIED IN BANKRUPTCY LAW, AV RATED, AVVO 10 RATED, ON SUPERLAWYERS, OR JUST VERY EXPERIENCED AND A FORMER CHAIR OF SOME BANKRUPTCY SECTION OR COMMITTEE. NOTHING HERE MAY BE USED AS LEGAL ADVICE IN CONNECTION WITH ANY BANKRUPTCY, WHETHER THAT BANKRUPTCY IS IN PHOENIX, GLENDALE, TEMPE, MESA, SCOTTSDALE, OR ANYWHERE ELSE.
