Mark Bromley, Attorney at Law

My Law Practice

Wisconsin Bankruptcy Law Practice

Most of my practice is devoted to helping debtors file bankruptcy cases.  The provisions I can use for that purpose are called "chapters."  These chapters include:

• Chapter 7.  This type of consumer bankruptcy can be filed by any person or business.  Although 3005 bankruptcy reform laws changed the requirements for this type of filing, most people still qualify.  I take my clients through the process of preparing to file and filing.  I teach my clients about their exempt assets are and how to use the bankruptcy laws to gain the maximum relief from harassing creditors.
• Chapter 13.  This is the second most common type of bankruptcy.  It is used by individuals, usually for the purpose of saving a house or car from repossession. In a Chapter 13, debts are restructured allowing a three to five year period of relief with a focus on manageable repayment of debt.
• Chapter 11.  This is a form of debt reorganization often used by businesses, partnerships, limited liability companies, and corporations of any size.  It helps save jobs and keep businesses going at the same time that it grants relief.   These cases are complex and require very experienced legal counsel.
• Chapter 12.  This special bankruptcy chapter was enacted in 1986.  It has specialized provisions designed to enable farmers to restructure their debt and continue farming. While these proceedings are comparatively rare, I have a great deal of experience in Chapter 12 cases.
• Chapter 128 of the Wisconsin Statutes.  By the use of the provisions of Chapter 128, interest can be canceled on debts you choose to include in the case, provided you repay what you owe within 3 years.
• Negotiations with the IRS and the Wisconsin Department of Revenue, and out of court with other creditors.  I can offer help with a range of debt issues such as these.
