At the law firm of Shaked & Posner, we provide quality representation and compassionate service to each of our clients in all aspects of bankruptcy and divorce. When you come to us, you will be treated like a person, not like a case number.
An Overview of Our New York City Law Practice
We provide comprehensive, cost-effective representation for clients in the following areas of law:
Bankruptcy: Whether you are in Brooklyn, Manhattan, the Bronx, White Plains or anywhere in Westchester County, we can help you find relief from overwhelming financial problems by filing for bankruptcy. We also provide counseling on how to improve credit scores and stop debt collections. We handle a wide variety of bankruptcies, including:
- Chapter 7 bankruptcy: For those who qualify, Chapter 7 is a good way to eliminate overwhelming debt and get a fresh start.
- Chapter 13 bankruptcy: For those with some ability to pay debts, have significant equity in the home or otherwise do not qualify for Chapter 7, filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy provides debt relief through the creation of a manageable monthly payment plan.
- Business bankruptcy: We advise business owners as to whether they would be better served by filing a Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The effects on the business are vastly different, and we will explain the details to you thoroughly.
In addition, we are one of the few firms that skillfully handle litigation involving preferences and fraudulent transfers. We have nearly 40 years of combined experience defending clients in these cases, including Fortune 500 companies, small businesses and individuals.

Foreclosures/loan modifications: For clients in Manhattan, the Bronx and all surrounding areas, we provide aggressive, skillful foreclosure defense. In many cases, lenders are willing to negotiate rather than foreclose on a home and try to sell it in a depressed market. We will help you work out a forbearance or a loan modification to allow you to keep your home with a mortgage under more favorable terms.
Divorce in New York: We understand the importance of family, and how painful it can be when a couple divorces. We help our clients through these difficult times by resolving issues of:
- Child custody and visitation
- Child support
- Spousal support
- Property division
Our attorneys stay current on the most recent developments in New York divorce law, including the recent adoption of no-fault divorce.
Real estate transactions: Buying or selling a home, apartment, condominium, cooperative or commercial property is one of the largest transactions you are likely to make in your lifetime. Without legal advice, it can also be one of the riskiest. We advise clients at all stages of the process, from contract negotiations through the closing.
