Our goal is to provide fair and dignified legal representation with an affordable pricing structure by using our
collective decades of experience to maximize efficiency. People are struggling under heavy debt loads which are
impairing and frustrating their ability to make financial progress. Our aim is to help them. We can provide
alternatives to bankruptcy and can work with clients to resolve difficult financial troubles with
the object of significantly improving their overall financial condition within two to three years.
There are no quick fixes to debt problems. Beware of debt settlement companies which promise
the world but rarely if ever deliver.In the short term, usually only in a matter of weeks – we can
relieve the stress which inevitably accompanies financial crisis.
In the long term, we truly can help you turn things around.We know how it works. We know how
much anxiety unpaid bills can create. The phone calls at all hours, the threatening letters, the
demands for money you struggle to keep up with, all of these combine to create an extremely
tense situation.
While KPWS Law P.C. is a fairly new law firm, the attorneys who formed it have practiced for
many years. All presently work with or are associated with the law firm of Kelley and Polishan,
LLC. Kelley and Polishan, LLC do not limit their work to debtor and creditor matters, but practice
in many areas of the law, including personal injury, criminal defense, civil rights, commercial litigation,
real estate transactions, real estate tax assessment appeals, and divorce. We represent numerous
major local businesses ranging from the very large to the very small. The impetus for the formation
of KPWS Law, P.C. has been our belief that many people have far too much unsecured debt which
they can never pay back. We have had great success in relieving people of financial hardship
and believe that there are many more in our region who could benefit from our services.
