San Diego Bankruptcy Laws

Print this page

Federal bankruptcy laws are applied slightly differently from state to state, and from community to community. In San Diego, we use federal bankruptcy law, California bankruptcy law, and the legal bankruptcy rules that apply to the Southern District of California, which includes both San Diego County and Imperial County.

The bankruptcy lawyers at Steigerwalt Law Firm handle both Chapter 13 bankruptcy and Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 apply to individuals or spouses filing bankruptcy together; neither applies to businesses.

Our highly experienced attorneys also handle debt negotation and can arrange for credit counseling and debt management classes. We offer a no-charge, no pressure consultation if you are trying to decide if bankruptcy is right for you.

Below, we have included links to pages where we cover more detailed information about bankruptcy. We will be adding more links soon. For questions about whether you qualify for bankruptcy or whether another alternative would work better for you, please just call us today for your free consultation.
