How We Learned Our Neighbors Had To Declare Bankruptcy
In Identity Theft of CreditGuru (November 30, 2009 5:01 pm)
One night we invited two of our neighbors over for dinner and as soon as they walked through the door my husband and I noticed there was something obviously bothering them. After dinner, we were sitting in the living room having a nice chat when out of the blue, Richard, tells us that he and his wife have to file for bankruptcy. My husband and I were both sadden and stunned to hear the news. Since we live in a big city in Texas we told our neighbors it should not be too difficult for them to find a Houston Bankruptcy Attorney. Now, we live in an area called The Woodlands, so Richard asked us if we knew anything about The Woodlands Bankruptcy Attorney who livesaround our area. All either of us knew was that we had heard that The Woodlands Bankruptcy lawyer was very good and that he had plenty of experience dealing with this situation. It was so hard for us, that evening, to see our friends and neighbors tell us that they needed to file for bankruptcy. Before they left, we told them to keep us updated on what was going on and we told them to tell us if they needed anything.
About two weeks later, Susan came by my home to tell me that they finally found a very nice attorney who was being extremely helpful during their difficult time. She also said to me that were going to have to try to sell their house and move all the way over to the other side of the city. She cried as she talked about how much she loved her house and that she hated to move away from the lovely community we were living in together. It was extremely upsetting to see a good friend go through all of these problems. I told her that of course we would still be good friends and we could see each other whenever we could. That seemed to help and she went back to her home to get some work done before attempting to get someone to purchase the house.
Not long after my conversation with Susan their house was put up for sale and it sold not long after it was put on the market. The house was pretty much in perfect condition because Susan and Richard kept it so pristine.
Richard and Susan soon moved away from the neighborhood, but Susan called often to keep me updated on how she was doing. She always talked about how helpful their attorney continued to be and how good of friends they had become with him. He really was of great assistance to Richard and Susan while they were going through their hard time. I was really delighted to hear they were able to find someone who could be kind to them and someone who could help them make the best of their situation.
It was one of the more challenging things to watch our friends and neighbors have to go through filing bankruptcy, but it seemed like they were in good hands once they hired a nice lawyer, who helped them rearrange some assets and get them started again after their bankruptcy was over.
