New York City Bankruptcy Lawyers Helping Families and Businesses With Estate Planning and Financial Matters
The legacies we build and the assets we acquire in life are what will be considered our estate. One day, when we are no longer among the living, our estates will be passed on to others. But without a proper, legally valid estate plan in place, there can be no guarantee that our assets will go to our intended beneficiaries and heirs. What’s worse, the estate could become a source of conflict among those who survive us, as our loved ones argue and litigate over what they believe should be theirs. Even before our ultimate, eventual passing, our assets and our estates are at risk. If we ever become incapacitated, legal documents need to be in place to direct those we love with how we want our care to be handled. And if we ever fall into extreme amounts of debt, there may be a need to consider filing bankruptcy, which can put our estates and the assets within them at risk.
The law firm of Ortiz & Ortiz, LLP has decades of experience providing clients with dedicated legal services in and around the five boroughs of New York City. If you are considering the creation of wills, trusts, or a power of attorney, please contact our law offices. In addition to estate planning, our NYC lawyers also represent clients going through the bankruptcy process. To learn more, please schedule a consultation with our legal team.

What Legal Matters Can We Help You With?
Ortiz & Ortiz, LLP is experienced in and out of bankruptcy court, probate court, and the Surrogate’s Court of the State of New York.
The attorneys of our law firm represent New York City clients in a number of practice areas, including:
- Business Bankruptcy: If your business has fallen deep into debt, Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 bankruptcy may be viable options to consider.
- Estate Litigation and Contested Wills: If an estate goes to probate without a valid will, or if there is reason to doubt the authenticity of the will’s written language, there may be grounds for certain interested parties to challenge the will.
- Personal Bankruptcy: The majority of Americans fall into debt at some point in their lives and some of us are simply unable to crawl back out of it. If you are in desperate need of debt relief, filing for bankruptcy may provide you with the clean slate you are looking for.
- Power of Attorney: In the event that you are ever incapacitated, certain important decisions may still need to be made on your behalf with the authority of a power of attorney (POA).
- Trusts: In NYC, trusts are one of the most popular ways to leave assets and property to your intended heirs.
- Wills: Everyone across New York City has an estate but far fewer have taken the necessary steps to create an effective estate plan.
