What to Look For in a Kansas Bankruptcy Attorney
Good Demeanor and Can Explain Terms in Simple Language
You'll likely be collaborating with your Kansas bankruptcy attorney for many months. It's important that the two of you share a good rapport. Bankruptcy proceedings can get quite complicated, and it's easy for clients to feel lost and out of control. Your lawyer should be able to explain the subtleties of bankruptcy law to you in clear language and tell you how filing for bankruptcy will impact your life, both positively and negatively.
Solid Record Handling your Type of Bankruptcy
The average consumer can file two types of bankruptcy – Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. Farmers can file Chapter 12. Small businesses can file for Chapter 11. Each bankruptcy chapter filing requires different kinds of petitions, deadlines, and preconditions. A bankruptcy attorney with experience in Chapter 11 reorganizations, for instance, may not be as familiar with the rules and deadlines codified by Chapter 7 as someone who deals with consumer bankruptcies day in, day out.
Professional Organization Membership
These might include the Kansas State Bar, the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys, and other relevant associations, teaching positions, etc.
No Unexplained Blemishes
Check with the Better Business Bureau or with the State Bar to find out whether an attorney has been disbarred or reprimanded for unethical conduct. Just because a lawyer has a bad mark on his or her record doesn't mean that you should seek help elsewhere. But you should demand a detailed explanation for the blemish.
Fair Payment Structure
This may be a one time upfront fee, a fee based on the total money you owe to creditors, or some other payment structure. Make sure you understand and are in agreement with how and when an attorney wants to be paid before retaining his or her services.
