Nevada Automatic Stay Enforcement Attorneys
When you file for bankruptcy, you are immediately protected by a provision in the bankruptcy code called the automatic stay. The automatic stay requires your creditors to immediately stop all collection activity, including wage garnishments, foreclosures and repossession actions. In addition, they are not allowed to call you or send you collection letters once they have been notified about your bankruptcy filing. Additionally, once you have received a bankruptcy discharge, certain creditors are prohibited from attempting to collect on discharged debt.

Protecting Your Rights
If a creditor continues to pursue collection activity in defiance of the automatic stay or after you have received a discharge, they are violating a court order. Violations can result in significant penalties to the creditor. In addition, you may be able to seek damages, including punitive damages, and attorneys fees from the creditor if the harassment does not stop.
At the law firm of Bowler Dixon & Twitchell LLP, we work diligently to protect your rights under the automatic stay and/or discharge injunction. If you have creditors continually harassing you, we can handle them for you. We can also represent you in any action against a creditor for violations of the automatic stay or the discharge order, even if we didn't handle your initial bankruptcy.
