How We Help

Real Relief for Sailors and aviators and Their Families

  • Stop creditor calls to your command. The moment you file, creditors must stop contacting you — and your command.
  • End allotment & DFAS deductions. Voluntary allotments to lenders can be stopped and the debt wiped out.
  • Halt NEX/AAFES and Navy Federal collections. Even creditors with special powers can be dealt with in bankruptcy.
  • Protect your security clearance. Resolving debt removes the “financial considerations” concern. Learn more.
  • Stop garnishment, repossession & foreclosure. The automatic stay puts an immediate stop to collection actions.
  • Protect a reenlistment bonus and your property. With the right planning, in most cases you keep everything you own.
Deployed or PCSing?

File Without Leaving Home

You do not have to be in Virginia — or even stateside — to file. We use power-of-attorney filing, e-signatures, and phone/video 341 meetings so deployment or a PCS never stops your case. See our Military Bankruptcy page for details.
