Posted in: Kingcade Garcia, Press Releases, Timothy Kingcade | Comments (1)
CHICAGO, IL, (AttorneyNewsWire.com) — December 24, 2009 — As America closes out 2009 with roughly 1.45 million bankruptcy filings, a new survey reveals the possible economic factors behind the surge.
The statistics are based on a December 2009 survey of 1,000 people contacting Total Attorneys to connect with a bankruptcy lawyer.
The Economic Factors Survey
When asked which economic factor (job loss/wage reduction, the credit crunch, increased mortgage payments, gas prices or food prices) forced them to consider bankruptcy, 57% of respondents cited job loss/wage reduction.
“Widespread, long-term job loss means many people don’t have the income to cover basic living costs,” says Kevin Chern, bankruptcy attorney and president of Total Attorneys. “Bankruptcy may be a way for people to protect their homes and regain control over their finances.”
The Bankruptcy Relation Survey
In an indication of how much the bankruptcy idea has spread, 10% of people polled said they know three or more people who recently considered bankruptcy.
“Bankruptcy isn’t something that happens to someone else,” says Chern. “It’s not a sign of failure or irresponsibility. For many people it’s a way to protect their family.”

MIAMI – Bankruptcy attorney Timothy Kingcade, managing and founding partner of Kingcade & Garcia, P.A., (www.miamibankruptcy.info/), was a recent key note speaker at the Dade County Bar Association’s seminar on, “Everything you need to know to Serve Foreclosures and Bankruptcies and protect your Practice.” The seminar took place on December 4th at the Hyatt Regency in Miami.
“Particularly in my practice, I have seen many of my clients emotionally exhausted facing the possibility of losing their homes due to foreclosure. With some of the recent changes in the law, it is important that the debtor understands that bankruptcy is a powerful remedy to negate the tax consequences of foreclosure,” says Kingcade.
Attorney Kingcade’s presentation, “When Bankruptcy is the Best Solution to Foreclosure” focused on a debtor’s surrender of real estate via bankruptcy, the appropriate timing to file bankruptcy, qualifying factors for filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy, items that bankruptcy discharges, and tax consequences. Another prominent attorney to speak at the seminar was Kendall Coffey, who addressed foreclosure defense strategies.
