Tips for rebuilding credit after bankruptcy
As someone struggling with increasingly overwhelming medical, credit card or other debt, you may be thinking about filing for bankruptcy so you can get that fresh start you desperately need.

Unwanted heirlooms? Consider having an estate sale
Not all inheritances are needed or wanted, as we at The Day Law Office are aware. If, like many Florida residents after the death of their parents, you find yourself with possessions you have no room or need for, you may feel guilty even thinking about donating or throwing away these items.

These days, an increasingly high percentage of American babies are born to parents who were never married, and such situations can give rise to a wide range of highly emotional and paternity-related issues. Maybe you are the mother of a child and the person you believe fathered your son or daughter denies it and refuses to help support your child. Or, conversely, maybe you believe you fathered a child and wish to become a part of this child’s life, but the child’s mother is making this difficult.

Most in Hernando County may view the probate process as only dealing with the distribution of assets to an estate's beneficiaries.

Fortunately, Florida's Probate Code addresses the amount of time creditors are afforded to make a claim against a person's estate.

It might even be tempting for you to view it as a more attractive option than having to submit to the harsh demands of your creditors.

This is mostly felt in your credit rating, which could hinder your ability to borrow money for important purchases such as buying a home.
