HOUSTON, TX BANKRUPTCY LAWYER

Legal Guidance for Overcoming Financial Challenges in Houston, TX

Insurmountable debt can truly happen to anyone. Even if you work hard at your job, even if you are financially responsible and do everything you can to live within your means, life happens. Maybe you got sick and the medical bills spiraled out of control. Maybe you got laid off and had to use credit cards to keep your family housed and fed. Maybe you fell prey to payday loans out of necessity when you had just begun a new job and had bills due before your first paycheck came in. Maybe divorce or circumstances beyond your control reduced your family income from two incomes to one or less. There are many ways that debt can sneak up on a person. Fortunately, there is a way to manage this debt that does not involve trying to keep track of many different monthly payments while accruing interest charges.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Board Certified Specialist

We have provided legal assistance to thousands of Houston residents and businesses

Depending on the needs of your family or your business, our attorneys will identify the type of bankruptcy that will help you the most. Factors like your ability to keep making payments toward your debt and what assets you have will influence what type of bankruptcy is likely to be best for you. You have more options than you might think. In some cases, we are even able to help our clients avoid bankruptcy by negotiating directly with their creditors, especially when hospital care or a credit card is a major source of debt.

If filing for bankruptcy is the right solution for you, you still have options. Liquidation bankruptcy, legally called Chapter 7 bankruptcy for individuals and businesses, may work best if you have fairly limited assets and much of what you own is exempt from liquidation. Restructuring bankruptcy, or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, can create a repayment plan that lasts only 3-5 years before all further debt is waived.

Vicky Fealy has 30+ years of legal experience, helping clients through tough times.

At The Fealy Law Firm, PC, our attorneys work diligently to help clients address issues related to all types of bankruptcy. To schedule an initial meeting, call 713-526-5220.

Filed for chapter 7 bankruptcy and Ms. Fealy and Sandra Castillo made the entire process so much easier than I expected. They were knowledgeable, responsive, and always took the time to answer my questions and explain everything clearly. What could have been a stressful experience felt manageable because of their guidance and support. I’m incredibly grateful for their help and highly recommend them to anyone considering Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

“I used Chapter 13 bankruptcy to protect my business and assets. My attorney,Ms Fealy along with Sandra Castillo, did an excellent job stopping all collections, fighting off the creditors, and preventing the mortgage company from foreclosing. They also set up a workable payment plan.”

Ms. Fealy and the entire staff of the Fealy Law Firm are amazing! Absolute professionalism, attention to details, and uncompromising ethics makes the Fealy Law Firm superior to other bankruptcy attorneys, not only in Houston, but I would dare say in all of Texas. Ms. Fealy was highly communicative and walked us through each step of the bankruptcy process step by step. We felt her care, her concern, and her passion for our case. She truly went above and beyond to make sure we understood and felt comfortable with the process and what was required of us, and to create a confirmable plan. If you are facing the most challenging part of your business life and you need guidance, I would highly recommend you engage Ms. Fealy and her firm to shepherd you through the bankruptcy process. Her advice and dedication saved our business.

A+ team led by Vicky Fealy. She helped me save my business and turned a failing case around to succeed in confirming a bankruptcy plan where other, lesser lawyers failed spectacularly. The Fealy Law Firm’s rates are extremely reasonable and it is an understatement to say that Vicky’s personal dedication to my business’ case achieved miraculous results

We hired this firm to handle both our business bankruptcy and later our personal bankruptcy, and we could not be more grateful for their help and guidance throughout the entire process. They were professional, knowledgeable, and truly supportive during a very stressful time for our family. When we filed our personal bankruptcy on February 4, 2026, everything was handled smoothly, and we were notified on Tuesday, 5/5/2026 that it has officially been discharged—such a huge relief. A special thank you to Sandra, the assistant, who consistently kept us informed and made sure we understood every step along the way. Shawn Gallagher was also extremely helpful, responsive, and supportive throughout the process. We highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of bankruptcy services. They truly care about their clients and go above and beyond to help you through difficult situations.

Going through bankruptcy is one of the hardest things I’ve faced, and Vicky Fealy and her team made the process so much less overwhelming. Eddie, Sandra, and Martin were all incredibly supportive and made sure I understood every step, never leaving me feeling lost or anxious. This office gave me my fresh start, and I’m truly grateful for the care they showed throughout the whole process. Highly recommend.
