Following an accident caused by someone else, you may have found yourself drowning in debt. Alternatively, you may have caused an accident and found yourself liable for someone else’s medical costs.
In either scenario, you’ll need to talk to an experienced bankruptcy attorney to find out whether it’s possible to eliminate your debt through bankruptcy or some other avenue.
