Virginia E. Fortunato

Specialties

My name is Virginia E. Fortunato and I’ve been practicing NJ bankruptcy for for more than six years now. This area of the law requires creativity in designing individual plans for my clients to achieve the FRESH financial start they deserve. Whether you can afford to save your home or need guidance giving up a home you can no longer afford, I am there to counsel and assist you through the process. Most of my clients are good and honest debtors who typically find themselves in my office because of things beyond their control. Clients often tell me, «This is the last place I ever thought I’d be,» and I am proud to help them achieve a fresh start.

Don’t fall into the trap of trying to pay your debt off through credit consolidation companies only to find it doesn’t work. You end up paying these companies exorbitant fees only to have to file bankruptcy at the end of the day — after spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
