Debt Relief through Bankruptcy
Debt is more than a dollar figure—it can weigh heavily on your peace of mind. Bankruptcy is a legal tool for eliminating debt you cannot afford, while also helping you protect your home, car, retirement savings, bank accounts and other property. Once you file, creditors are barred from collecting from you, which can halt lawsuits, foreclosures, repossessions, wage garnishments and even persistent phone calls. Bankruptcy can be your path forward.
Personal Injury, Auto Accident, Slip & Fall
If another party's fault has left you injured, you are entitled to reimbursement for your losses, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Although recovery is your right, insurance companies will not pay what you are owed without a challenge. Retaining a lawyer is the most effective way to maximize the money you are legally due. Personal injury work is handled on a contingency basis, so I am paid only if you recover for your losses. You have nothing to lose but your rightful recovery.
Conservatorships & Guardianships
Conservatorships and guardianships are legal proceedings that appoint another person—a conservator or guardian—to provide for someone unable to do so themselves. Conservatorships involve adults, commonly seniors and people with disabilities, while guardianships involve minors. Both legally empower another to care for the personal well-being and/or financial affairs of someone unable to provide for themselves. The responsibilities can be shaped as broadly or narrowly as needed, and can be temporary or permanent. Whether the need involves housing, medical care, banking or more, conservatorships and guardianships can be the tool you need when you need it.
Sacramento, CA Law Practice Areas
Bankruptcy
Deciding to file bankruptcy is difficult, both financially and personally, and it is often a last resort. Having practiced bankruptcy law for many years in Sacramento and the surrounding communities, I understand the anguish that often accompanies the decision to file—and the relief a bankruptcy can bring. I can assist with both liquidation (Chapter 7) and reorganization (Chapter 13) bankruptcies.
Personal Injury
Accidents happen—but what if one happens to you through no fault of your own, leaving you out of pocket? Is it fair that you and your family are left responsible for medical or legal bills, lost wages, or pain and suffering? Of course not. You need an advocate who will fight hard to win fair redress. I can be that advocate, making sure you are fairly heard and represented. As a third party, I am not emotionally involved, so I can remain completely objective.

Conservatorships
Who will care for you if you cannot care for yourself, whether for physical or mental reasons? This is a very important area of your life and your loved one's life that needs to be properly addressed and planned for. I am experienced in establishing both conservatorships and guardianships (conservatorship for minors) and can help guide you to a successful conclusion. Unlike filing for bankruptcy, this is not a last option—it should be the first.

A Personal Message from James
"When you hire my office to file your case, you hire me. I have no associates, only an assistant. From the commencement of your case until its completion, I will represent you—personally. This is how this practice should be done, and it is how I do it."
"I've been in bankruptcy practice here in Sacramento and the surrounding regions since 1995, so I am experienced in all aspects of the bankruptcy filing process. I know the judges, the trustees and the court personnel. I am intimately familiar with the procedures, protocol and practice of processing a bankruptcy case that comes only with experience. And for that there is no substitute. It's not just bankruptcy help—I can also assist in the areas of conservatorship and guardianship, as well as personal injury cases."
