Bankruptcy Law: Securing Your Financial Fresh Start
Medical bills, sudden job loss, or rising living costs can quickly push anyone into overwhelming debt. While our firm handles several practice areas, the core of our practice remains focused on bankruptcy law.
For the past 22 years, Attorney Nachbar has specialized in assisting individuals facing severe financial hardship. He spent 10 years as a Partner in a Bankruptcy Law Firm before continuing this vital work through his own practice starting in 2012.
At The Law Office of Stuart M. Nachbar, P.C., we help you navigate the complexities of both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
Chapter 7 bankruptcy allows you to discharge many of your unsecured debts, such as credit card balances and medical bills. This process can stop creditor harassment, wage garnishments, and collection calls. We carefully review your financial situation to determine if you qualify and guide you through every step of the filing process.
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
If you have a steady income but have fallen behind on mortgage payments or car loans, Chapter 13 bankruptcy might be the right solution. This option involves creating a manageable repayment plan over three to five years. It can help you stop foreclosure and keep your most valuable assets.
We offer comprehensive legal assistance to protect your rights and help you secure a better financial future.
Special Needs Law: Advocating for Your Child
Every child deserves access to a quality education, but parents of children with disabilities often face steep hurdles to secure the right accommodations.
Attorney Nachbar brings both professional experience and personal dedication to helping families navigate the legal challenges surrounding special needs law. As a father of a child with a disability, he has spent years advocating for his own son to ensure he receives the best possible education and benefits from the school system.
This deep personal experience strengthens his resolve to assist families in similar situations. At The Law Office of Stuart M. Nachbar, P.C., we help families in New Jersey secure Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). We advocate fiercely for the educational rights of children with disabilities, ensuring schools provide the resources, accommodations, and tailored instruction your child is legally entitled to receive.
Personal Injury and Municipal Court Defense
Beyond bankruptcy and special needs advocacy, we offer dedicated support in other areas of law that are highly important to our community.
Personal Injury Claims
A sudden accident can leave you with severe injuries, mounting medical bills, and lost wages. We assist clients who have been impacted by personal injury due to the negligence of others. We represent clients in cases involving car accidents, slip and falls, and other injuries to secure the fair compensation needed for a full recovery.
Municipal Court Defense
A traffic ticket or a DUI charge can threaten your driving privileges, your finances, and even your freedom. As a former municipal prosecutor, Attorney Nachbar now focuses on defending citizens in Municipal Courts throughout Bergen, Essex, Morris, Union, and Passaic Counties. We handle traffic violations, DUI cases, and other municipal court matters, working hard to minimize penalties and protect your record.
