Woodland Hills Bankruptcy Lawyers See Spike in Filings

    WOODLAND HILLS, CA, September 11, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The bankruptcy lawyers at Hughes & Dunstan, LLP have noticed a sharp increase in the number of bankruptcy filings from 2007 to today, and are on a mission to help debtors.

Bankruptcy filings in the Central District of California and surrounding areas (from Santa Ana to Santa Barbara) have skyrocketed since 2007, and statistics show they're just starting to decline. However, there are still a large number of debtors that need assistance.

In January of 2007, there were a total of 1,605 chapter 7 bankruptcy filings in the Central District, and by January 2012 this number had risen to a whopping 6,582. It can be seen that we, as an economy, are not yet out of the woods and that there will be many more families and small businesses in need of debt relief.
