Services
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
Chapter 7 bankruptcy eliminates unsecured debts while protecting essential assets like homes and retirement accounts. Our firm guides clients through asset exemptions and creditor negotiations to achieve financial fresh starts. With virtual consultations, we ensure accessibility while providing strategic defense against wage garnishments and property seizures.
Mortgage Modification
We negotiate with lenders to reduce mortgage payments through principal reduction, interest rate adjustments, and term extensions. Our team intervenes at all foreclosure stages, including sheriff sale prevention, using Pennsylvania-specific legal protections for homeowners facing financial hardship due to job loss or medical emergencies.
Foreclosure Defense
Our aggressive litigation strategies challenge improper foreclosure practices and buy time for debt restructuring. We specialize in defending subprime mortgage cases, leveraging lender misconduct claims to halt sheriff sales and preserve homeownership rights for clients in Montgomery and surrounding counties.
Estate Planning
We create legally binding wills, healthcare declarations, and powers of attorney through secure remote platforms. Our estate documents ensure clients' wishes govern asset distribution and medical decisions, with virtual signing processes compliant with Pennsylvania legal formalities during public health emergencies.
Criminal Defense
We defend clients charged with DUIs, traffic violations, and criminal offenses, protecting driving privileges and minimizing penalties. Our approach combines courtroom experience with negotiation skills to reduce charges or secure alternative sentencing for first-time and repeat offenders across Philadelphia and Bucks County.

Had an unfortunate situation that required attention from an attorney. A good friend recommended J.R. To me. My experience w/ J.R. Was comfortable, he explained things to me so that I could easily understand the process we would be going through. He also let me pay in my own time frame before we actually settled my situation. I can't thank J.R. Enough for handling my case. He is a gem.

Charged me $240 for an email (not even an hours worth). One would think it should be called a wash since he had no clue about an important Bill which passed relieving me of an immense tax burden. I'm the one who had to do the research and find out the bad news he gave me was irrelevant. When I told him what I found and that I spoken to a CPA. He was sure to ask me what the Bill was called so he can brush up on his lack of knowledge of it. Quick to ask for retainer never stopping to inform what is included or how much one can expect to spend on the process.
