What Makes Denver Bankruptcy Attorney Matt Berkus Different Than Others?

Clients who work with Matt Berkus benefit from his unique approach to debt resolution.

Whether you're an individual or small business struggling with a debt problem, Matt offers services that result in personalized solutions that will work to your best advantage and not steering you toward solutions only offered by Matt.

A Unique Approach to Debt Resolution

Although it isn't true of everyone, most individuals who work on debt resolution aren't overly concerned with their clients' personal situations. At the end of the day, their primary interest often is obtaining a client so they can pay their own bills.

Matt Berkus takes a different approach to working with clients in need of solutions for their debt problems. When you work with Matt, you'll find that he takes the time to understand your unique situation, including how you ended up where you are today.

During one-on-one conversation with clients, Matt strives to understand not only your past and current situations, but also where you want to be in the future!

The fact is, identifying your goals is the key to choosing the very best strategy for solving your debt problem. Through conversation, Matt can help you answer the all important question, "What would you be doing if you didn't have all this debt to deal with?"

Once you've identified the end result you're really looking for, we can determine and implement a strategy that will best achieve your goals!

Identifying and focusing on your goals guarantees that the debt solution you opt for will work to your best advantage.

Your solution will truly be in your best interests. This is very different from being told what's best for you by an attorney who has no idea what you really want to achieve!

Personalized Service

If you've been researching legal or alternative solutions for your debt problem, such as bankruptcy or debt settlement, you've probably encountered three different types of professionals.

These professionals fall into 3 categories:

1. “Mills” or "Factories" are firms or attorneys who focus on processing as many bankruptcies or tax settlements as possible in a cookie-cutter fashion. These firms may work well for some people, but they do not provide in-depth consultations or try to understand your unique situation to maximize the success of your case. Their goal is to process as many SIMPLE bankruptcy cases as possible. They are not interested in identifying your goals, presenting all of your options and arriving at a solution that's in your best interest.

2. "Dabblers," are attorneys, usually fine attorneys, but practice in unrelated areas of the law. In addition to Bankruptcy, these attorneys may offer services related to family, criminal or other types of law. For many of these attorneys, bankruptcy is simply a matter of filling out forms in order to try to make some extra money on the side. Bankruptcy and tax resolution are highly technical and specialized areas of law that take years to truly master.

3. “Dedicated” Bankruptcy attorneys focus solely on bankruptcy and debt resolution, and practice this area of law exclusively. These attorneys don't do anything else! They see all sorts of clients in many different debt situations. And they have a breadth of experience in representing individuals and small business, unlike most other firms.

When you work with Denver bankruptcy attorney Matt Berkus, you benefit from the experience of dedicated attorney who understands the practical complexities of debt resolution.

Customized Services and Personalized Solutions

Unlike others who may refuse all but the simplest circumstances, Matt has the experience to help in most types of cases or situations with customized services and personalized solutions.

When you consult with other professionals, you'll probably receive a cut-and-dry, cookie-cutter, short initial consultation. But, Matt's average consults last 45 minutes to an hour.

This is the time it takes to:

Ensure a full understanding of your exact situation.
Identify your personal goals and outline a solution that's in your best interest.
Make sure you understand exactly what is going to happen with your case.
Ensure you understand everything necessary to get started on achieving your goal.
Ensure that when you walk out of the office, you have no lingering questions at the end of the consultation.

Matt Berkus differs from other Denver bankruptcy attorneys and debt resolution professionals in these ways...

One of the most important reasons he is able to help people in personalized, beneficial ways is because he's been in their shoes in the past.

Matt initially started his own law firm when the firm he worked for dissolved, leaving him to face the prospect of no income in two short weeks. He quickly decided to open his own practice. But with no possible way to fund it, Matt did what many small business owners do, built his practice on debt.

Like many other small business owners, Matt relied on credit cards to pay for advertising and office equipment, as well as personal expenses. As an inexperienced business owner, he made mistakes along the way – some of which were very costly. It wasn't long before he was facing upwards of $100,000 in personal debt.

The firm was successful, but the debt held it back. Matt learned from his mistakes, made some difficult decisions such as selling his house, and was able to resolve his debt without bankruptcy.

But the experience left him with a vivid, lasting impression of how it feels to be stuck in a situation where you don’t have enough income to pay the bills and you're completely overwhelmed with financial stress due to debt.

Today Matt uses his education, expertise and wealth of experiences to help other individuals and small business owners break free of their situation, by helping them solve their debt challenges.

His commitment to helping people is what sets Matt apart from others when it comes to solving your debt problem. Contact Denver bankruptcy attorney Matt Berkus today at 720-545-0339 for more information.
