Top best Real Estate Lawyers Near me in ZIP 64108

The focus of my practice is helping small businesses reorganize and stay in business through Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.  Too often I've seen businesses shut down because they were either unaware of their options, or could not afford to hire a large, expensive firm to do the work.  We provide big firm knowledge and experience with a small firm personal touch.  Chapter 11 is not just for GM, the law is there to help all businesses, no matter how small.. I have helped businesses in both Kansas and Missouri avert financial disaster and reorganize in Chapter 11.  We can help reduce secured debt, eliminate unsecured debt and restructure tax debt.  All the while we help small business owners continue to operate, pay their employees and relieve them of their financial stress.. I have been in practice for over a decade appearing in over 30 different courts in both Kansas and Missouri.  I have handled numerous Chapter 11's from filing to discharge and can help you reorganize your business into a stronger company that will not only survive but continue to grow.
