Solving legal problems like debt, or even making sure that a real estate closing goes smoothly, requires trust. We build trust by listening to concerns and answering questions honestly, being available and forthcoming, and creating an atmosphere in which clients feel comfortable in discussing their legal needs.

As a Hispanic woman, wife and mother, attorney Carol D. Ellis understands the pressures and problems facing families throughout South Florida.

At the confidential consultation, we will treat you with respect, review your situation, recommend a course of action, and ascertain a reasonable fee for our services. There is no obligation. We will discuss whether bankruptcy is the best option for you, and if not, explore other options as well. Smart debt management involves considering bankruptcy as an option to become debt free.

In addition to supporting clients through the bankruptcy process, I also advocate relentlessly on behalf of individuals and families who are under the threat of foreclosure on their homes. Your home is your most precious asset. We can help you protect it.

We are sensitive to your financial challenges. That is why we offer reasonable fees and payment plan options to clients in bankruptcy and foreclosure defense. Our office hours are Monday through Friday, but we can make arrangements to meet with you after normal business hours and on the weekend.

I am also one of the few bankruptcy lawyers in the area who speaks Spanish, meeting the needs of many Hispanic clients.
