Work with a Skilled Credit Repair & Debt Defense Attorney

Have the law offices of Joseph I Harrison, Esq. champion your debt defense.
Although our office and my career started with servicing debt related issues, the standard client in debt usually has several other legal issues which was the cause of the debt. In my experience, over 90% of people in debt had something happen to them that resulted in the debt. The usual culprits typically include either the debtor or a family member losing their job or having a failing business, having their hours reduced to part-time employment, someone getting sick and missing a substantial amount of time from work (or even worse passing away), or going through a divorce.
As we are devoted to customer satisfaction, we have expanded our legal services to put you in the best possible position to recover from the issues that resulted in your debt. If you have a legal need not covered by the below practice areas, we will find an attorney or law firm that is experienced in that area and make the appropriate introductions so you don’t have to look for multiple attorneys.
