If you're sued by a creditor, you have rights, and an experienced attorney can help you negotiate for large reductions in your debts without the need for bankruptcy.  I represent and protect the rights of consumers, and focus on litigation under consumer protection laws, such as the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Truth in Lending Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, Electronic Fund Transfer Act, Telephone Consumer Protection Act, and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act.  McCarthy Law also protects individuals by handling Personal Injury and Employment Law claims.  We handle both individual and class action lawsuits throughout the United States.

After several years practicing in international litigation and arbitration for corporate clients, I felt compelled to return to my original passion for the law: consumer protection. Bankruptcy is the most effective and powerful consumer protection available, so it was an obvious choice for my area of legal practice.. Now, I serve and protect individual consumers who have been dealt crushing financial blows that commonly result from health, marital and employment issues.  I am here to provide counsel, protection, remedies and empathy to whoever seeks out my service.. While Bankruptcy is a relatively inexpensive and straightforward process – as legal processes go – it is not the easy way out.  It takes a great deal of introspection and personal responsibility for an individual to identify (and accept) their financial predicament and to take the appropriate steps to remedy the underlying issues. I am always impressed with my clients’ gumption and I genuinely appreciate the effort it takes them to have the initial consultation.  I always treat them with the respect they deserve, and offer the empathy no one else will give.. When life deals you one of these financial blows and you think there is just no way out, please call me so I can give you some options.  Don't let your fear of the unknown - or the psychological torture of debt collectors - get the better of you. The beauty of a free bankruptcy consultation is that I will provide you with clarity and options to remedy your situation. I will help you immediately relieve the stress, worry and weight you have on your shoulders – I carry that weight for you so you can get on with the business of taking care of yourself and your family.
