We are Downtown Milwaukee area bankruptcy lawyers who have a significant number of positive online reviews. Why? Because we have helped thousands of people, just like you, get out from underneath their financial burdens. We offer expert bankruptcy services that are affordable, safe & effective.
Debt Advisors Downtown is East of Miller Park, South of The University of Milwaukee, just East of the shores of Lake Michigan and due North of Henry Majer Festival Park. (The home to popular events such as Summerfest, Festa Italiana and Irish Fest.) Most of the major Wisconsin interstates will get you close to our downtown Office but only I-794 has exits that actually feed into the downtown area. If you prefer to avoid the interstate, travel East on WI 18,(Bluemound Road), East on W. Wisconsin Avenue, or East on W. St. Paul Avenue. Keep in mind that our office is on the East side of The Milwaukee River so these streets that have a West directional will change to East just across the river, and as you near our office on E. Wisconsin Avenue. The largest cross street to our office is Water Street.

Exceptional service. The entire team was friendly and knowledgeable. The attorney took his time to walk me through step by step. I will recommend this law office to anyone!
I went through Debt Advisors as a referral by a friend. I am very happy I did so. The staff that I worked with were very helpful and showed a high level of professionalism. They were always able to answer any questions that I had. I was very happy with the attorney that I worked with, Michael Georg. Very professional.
Attorney Chad Schomburg and Debt Advisors helped me with my debt about three years ago. Chad explained the process to me and answered any questions I had, and the assistants compiled my documentation very efficiently while keeping my case moving forward. They were always available when I needed them, and even years later, I’m able to reach out to them, and they are willing to help. They have turned my life around 100%, and I could not have done it without them! Absolutely recommended!
They were there for my family from day 1 until the end, 5 years later (Ch. 13). Whenever I had questions or concerns they were always very responsive and gave me excellent advice. Michael and Jeremy are both exceptional bankruptcy attorneys. I highly recommend Debt Advisors.
After I had to go on disability, I used my credit cards a lot more thinking I could pay them off when I was able to go back to work. That didn't happen and I found myself so much worse off than I could handle. I went to Debt Advisors feeling terrible about what I had to do. Chad and everyone there were very understanding and put my mind at ease while taking such great care of me. They were there every step of the way and supported me when I was "freaking out"!! Every time I needed to contact them; their response time was amazing!! God forbid I ever need to go through this again, but I know where to turn if I need help! Debt Advisors are more than just filing bankruptcy on my behalf. They really care about what you are going through!! Thank you, Chad, Jeremy, Mike, and everyone at Debt Advisors!! I cannot tell you enough how much I appreciate all of you!! J Hammond
Chad Schomburg and his Staff did a phenomenal job for me and in an expeditious manner. I've recommend countless clients to Chad Schomburg, Wow!!! Outstanding customer service from the Schomburg office:)
Michael George, helped us through our Chapter 13. I cannot believe how welcomed we both felt from the first call to the hearing. Any questions we had were answered in a timely manner. Phone access outstanding. The reassuring demeanor of Michael George and his staff, alleviated our worries, and stress over this matter. We were quickly taken care, and we both feel like a burden has been lifted. Thank you so much! Peter and Theresa Gosda
Highly recommended for anyone needing help to file bankruptcy! Chad makes the whole process completely seamless. Even after it has been so many years since filing, he still was able to help me track down much needed documents that I no longer had.
Very knowledgeable staff, I worked with Michel Georg, he was very nice and comforting, I didn't feel pressured to file anything but I felt I made a smart decision. I will most definitely recommend working with Debt Advisors.
After my divorce, I thought I was too broke to afford another attorney to help me through bankruptcy. Working with Michael George, and the Debt Advisor's team was affordable and pain free. Debt Advisors worked with my schedule. I completed the whole process using virtual meetings and emails. Their payment terms fit my budget. Making the decision to file bankruptcy was the hardest part of the process. I saw the benefits of my bankruptcy quickly. A week after my petition was filed: I got an email saying my credit score improved by 90 points. A month after: the past due amount on my cable bill was gone.
I was made to feel like the weight was off me when this process was done. Very happy with the whole timely process.5 star for me, for sure.
Any time I called with questions or concerns, someone responded quickly and professionally.
I worked with Chad S.and Jenny D. at Debt Advisors in the past, and enjoyed the professional, knowledgeable service that they provided. I recommend their services.

I want to thank Mike Georg and Janice Nabke for doing such an amazing job on my Bankruptcy. The whole process was very easy. They were there to make sure I understood what was happening every step of the way and answered all of my questions. When it came time for the hearing, I felt very prepared. I really cant express my gratitude enough for all their help.
I still remember the day when I started my bankruptcy back in 2016. I selected Debt Advisors because a good friend of mine had recommended Atty Mike Georg to me. After we met I was glad that I did select Debt Advisors for many reasons. Mainly, it was the professionalism and care that Mike and his staff showed me throughout the entire process. It felt good knowing that my situation would be taken care of efficiently and in a timely manner. Even after my bankruptcy was discharged Attorney Mike Georg and Debt Advisors have been there for me in 2018 and this 2020. Both times I've needed professional help with things like providing me with documents and forms that I've needed from my case. I strongly encourage anyone looking for debt consultation to visit Debt Advisors for help. They're great at what they do!
I had alot of questions & apprehensions before I filed for bankruptcy. Thanks to Mike Georg, Katie and the staff at Debt Advisors I no longer have to worry. They helped out along the way answering every question straight forward. I would recommend them to anyone in fear of filling bankruptcy. I know I did. Due to the pandemic things took a little longer than expected. But that was ok, now I can move on with my life. Without them I would be stuck in life. Thanks again.
Wonderful company to work with. They answered all of the questions I had in a timely manor with great detail and explanation.
They had great prompt service. Explained everything start to finish. Great people to work with! I recommend them 100%
Mike Georg was extremely helpful during the entirety of my process. He made sure I understood exactly what was going to happen and he was always there to answer any questions I may have had. I really like the fact that I didn’t have to pay all out of pocket at once. Their payment plan made it easy for me to pay what I had to without breaking the bank. I’m completely satisfied with the level of professionalism that everyone in the office has. Even to this day I’m able to get in touch with them which I’m really grateful for. I’d definitely recommend them to my family and friends. If your someone who’s looking to get out of debt but are skeptical, you’ll have no worries here with Debt Advisors. The process is quick and easy.
Love them they are great
I highly recommend Debt Advisors if you are considering a bankruptcy. We are nearing the end of our plan and everyone at DA has been extremely helpful and thorough. Angel in particular has been very helpful with the many, many questions we've had over the years. Thanks for all of your efforts!
Everyone treated me with dignity and respect. Chad explained everything and put me at ease. I would recommend Debt Advisors to anyone looking for professional quality experience.
I had nothing but an amazing experience. Very professional, intelligent, hard working, and caring. Attorney Michael S. Georg was nothing short of amazing! He made the process painless and easy. From the first meeting to the last he was nothing but professional and showed that he cared! His staff was excellent and is very helpful!
From the second I walked in and talked to the lawyer I felt a sense of relief and a huge weight off my shoulders. Debt Advisors was efficient, timely, and professional. They helped my husband and I to get a fresh start financially.We’re so happy we chose Debt Advisors!!
Bankruptcy is never fun, but this Law Office made it so much easier. If I ever had any questions at all they were answered timely. They even helped me through a rough time when I ended up having to pay taxes and had a big medical exspense too! They were always kind and never made me feel bad for having to do the bankruptcy. They were sympathetic to why and just helped me through it! I recommend them to anyone I know going through this or having to start this process. I know of two of the people I referred who used htem and loved them too! Thank you Debt Advisors Law Offices! Jeremy and Angel thank you personally!
Not a good year, 2016. Chad L. Schomburg at Debt Advisors Law Office made it easier. Very professional and with the knowledge to answer all my questions. Extremely happy with the results and I highly recommend this Law Office.
I can confidently say that Debt Advisors is NOT in the business of taking advantage of you in your current situation. Debt Advisors is in the business of helping you get in a better place than you are now. I was there, constantly worrying about this large amount of debt that I owed. Feeling sick to my stomach and unable to sleep at night. Then I talked to Mike. He is genuine and honest. Having him in my corner took this huge weight off my chest. If you are in this place, I highly recommend giving Debt Advisors a call, it is the first step in the right direction.

I was a previous client of Debt Advisors. The first day I met Mr. George his professionalism was outstanding! I was comfortable and relaxed during my consultation. Mr. Georg greeted me in person and the atmosphere was welcoming. Mr. Georg relocated to another place, however in the same town,. I was notified immediately, of the new location, which was an easy find. I thought, I was in a luxury hotel lobby.Once again, Mr. Georg greeted me in person, by this time I felt I had known him forever! Mr. George was easy to converse with and he went over all details I never once felt rushed. The quality of work speaks for itself, not to mention the good value.

Bankruptcy is a term that often evokes a sense of dread and uncertainty. Yet, when faced with insurmountable debts and relentless creditors, it can serve as a viable solution and a path to financial freedom. Understanding the intricacies of bankruptcy, particularly the differences between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13, is important for anyone contemplating this significant financial decision. Each chapter offers a distinct approach to debt relief, and the choice between the two can have long-lasting implications on one’s financial health and lifestyle.
Debt Advisors, specializes in guiding individuals through the process of bankruptcy. With years of experience and a team of dedicated Milwaukee bankruptcy lawyers, Debt Advisors offers a comprehensive suite of services designed to help clients make informed decisions. Whether it’s liquidating assets to discharge debts in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or restructuring debts in a Chapter 13 repayment plan, the firm provides expert advice tailored to each client’s unique financial situation.
While Chapter 7 offers a relatively quick resolution, it may require the liquidation of non-exempt assets to pay off creditors. On the other hand, Chapter 13 allows individuals to keep their valuable assets but demands a long-term commitment to a repayment plan. Both options come with their own sets of eligibility criteria, benefits, and drawbacks, making it crucial to consult an expert for personalized guidance.
In the following sections, a detailed exploration of Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy will be provided, covering definitions, eligibility criteria, processes, benefits, and drawbacks. An FAQ section will address common concerns and questions, aiming to offer a comprehensive understanding of these complex financial tools. The objective is to equip Milwaukee residents with the knowledge they need to navigate their financial challenges effectively and to highlight Debt Advisors’ commitment to providing reliable, compassionate bankruptcy services.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy, often referred to as “liquidation bankruptcy,” provides individuals an
opportunity to eliminate most of their unsecured debts. These debts typically include credit
card balances, medical bills, and personal loans. Unlike other forms of bankruptcy, Chapter
7 allows for a relatively quick discharge of debts, offering a financial fresh start.
To qualify for Chapter 7, individuals must pass a means test. Conducted by a Milwaukee
bankruptcy lawyer from Debt Advisors, the means test evaluates an individual’s financial
situation by comparing income to the median income in Wisconsin. Expenses such as rent,
utilities, and healthcare are also considered. Failing the means test may disqualify an
individual from Chapter 7, but other bankruptcy options like Chapter 13 could still be
available.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy, often termed “reorganization bankruptcy,” serves as a legal framework
for individuals to restructure their debts while retaining valuable assets like a home or
car. Unlike Chapter 7, which liquidates assets to pay off debts, Chapter 13 allows
individuals to create a repayment plan to pay back a portion of their debts over a period of
3 to 5 years.
Qualifying for Chapter 13 involves meeting specific criteria. A steady source of income is
crucial, as the debtor must prove the ability to meet the repayment obligations under the
proposed plan. Additionally, there are debt limits for Chapter 13; as of 2022, unsecured
debts must be less than $419,275, and secured debts must be under $1,257,850. A Milwaukee
bankruptcy lawyer from Debt Advisors can help assess eligibility based on these and other
factors.
