Alexander & Chandler APLC assists individuals burdened by excessive debt in obtaining a fresh financial start. They handle both Chapter 7 (liquidation) and Chapter 13 (debt consolidation/repayment plans) bankruptcies. Chapter 7 allows for the discharge of debts and stops debt collectors, lawsuits, and wage garnishment, though some non-exempt property may be lost. Chapter 13 consolidates debts into one monthly payment, stopping collection actions, vehicle seizures, and home foreclosures, while generally allowing debtors to keep their property. Legal fees may be included in a Chapter 13 plan.

The firm offers free consultations to help clients understand their legal rights and options. Attorneys are members of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys, the Shreveport Bar Association, and the Louisiana State Bar Association.
