Guidelines to Help you choose an Oregon Bankruptcy Attorney

1. The earlier you start, the better

If you delay your search for your Oregon bankruptcy attorney, your creditors may attempt to attack your current wages and future earnings, may file a lawsuit against you and/or your business and/or your spouse, and your credit rating can be hit hard.

2. Many great attorneys keep low profiles

Just because an attorney advertises prolifically on the Web, through the Yellow Pages, and on TV doesn't necessarily mean that he or she provides top-tier service. Many top bankruptcy firms work exclusively by getting referrals from satisfied clients.

3. Use trustworthy sources to find potential attorneys

These include the Oregon State Bar, the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys, lawyers without vested interests in bankruptcy cases, judges and trustee associations without vested interests, and the Web's top legal directory, www.AttorneyLocate.com, which lists vetted counsel in places like Eugene, Hillsboro, Salem, Beaverton, and Portland.

4. Track record is critical

Find a lawyer who boasts great peer-reviews, exceptional feedback from clients, relevant experience, and an ability to press your petition at trial if need be.

5. Pleasant demeanor and easy rapport

You and your lawyer could be working together for weeks or months, so retain a representative who's easy to get along with.

6. There is no one "best" attorney

Aim for someone who has the experience to handle your case effectively. If you spend too much time searching and interviewing candidates, you may fall further behind in your payments and get into more trouble with your creditors.
