Brian Hart Law Offices focuses on one area of the law: bankruptcy. We do not split our time and energy trying to be the attorney equivalent of a jack of all trades. Bankruptcy is a specific and complicated area of law. You need an experienced attorney, not just any attorney that feels like doing a bankruptcy this week.

"During my bankruptcy practice since 1992 I have seen many firms and attorneys, both local and out of town, come and go out of practicing bankruptcy law in Winnebago County. As a lifelong resident of Rockford, I am here to stay. I have dedicated the last two decades to the study and practice of bankruptcy law in Rockford and the surrounding counties and have had my own practice since 2004." Brian Hart

Here is a snapshot of our practice philosophy:
We believe you deserve honest answers, straight forward information, and to be treated with respect.
We refuse to get voice mail.
We give back to our community as evidenced by our various service awards.
We list our fees on our website for all to see. We do all the above and we do it for much less than most other firms. That is what sets us apart and we are proud of it.

We are Attorneys and Educators
We believe a good attorney's job is split into two roles: attorney and educator. Providing affordable, quality legal representation is only half of the battle. First, we take the time to understand you as well as your current financial situation. Second, we evaluate and discuss all possible options including non-bankruptcy remedies. Third, we work together to decide what is in your individual best interest. We have found from our experience that our clients are less fearful of the bankruptcy process because they know what to expect. We will be there with you to explain every step of the way.

You Can Contact us Directly
It has always been a pet peeve of ours - when you call an attorney / business and have to go through a number of telephone prompts just to talk to a real person. We take a hands-on approach to the practice of law and make special effort to be easily accessible to our new and existing clients. There is a reason why we don't have voice mail, we want personal contact with our clients, not electronic barriers. At Brian Hart Law Offices a person answers our phones, not a machine.
