Bankruptcy · Los Angeles roster

For 3,341 of the 29,383 active attorneys in Los Angeles, the registry holds a language other than English; by count, Spanish (2,262), Chinese (1,272), French (959) and Japanese (634). Attorneys themselves confirmed Spanish (2) and French (1); the rest come from a firm website published in that language, which describes the website, not the attorney.

Reading the roster in Los Angeles. Bankruptcy is federal, so what matters locally is the attorney's standing practice in the bankruptcy court division where your case will be filed and with its panel trustees. Ask which chapter fits your income and assets and why, what the flat fee covers, how California's two exemption schemes apply to your property, and what the timeline to discharge looks like. Be wary of non-attorney "debt relief" services; bankruptcy petition preparers are sharply restricted by 11 U.S.C. § 110.
