- Child SupportYou must know that when you declare bankruptcy, not all debt is dischargeable. A reliable way to determine dischargeability is to discuss your debts with an attorney. Our attorneys will examine when each debt was incurred, whether it was a personal loan, credit card charge, or a medical bill (all of which are dischargeable). We also look at some debts that may not be dischargeable, such as student loans, child support, or spousal support. We provide you with honest answers so you can make informed decisions. We have offices in the San Diego and Riverside area, Temecula, and El Cajon and East County area to better serve our bankruptcy clients.

Therefore, if you are being sued by the creditors, bankruptcy is the only viable solution that can provide you financial relief.
