Question by awalk.intheclouds11: I dont know what to do, I’m at a complete loss right now?
Right now, I’m not getting any money at all and I’m worried. I’m in a fair amount of debt right now, because of a scam “debt relief” group that promised me that if I made payments to them, that they would pay off my debt, which was not alot at the time. Then, I still got the calls from the bank and so forth, and my debt wasn’t going away, but increasing. And then when I called them back, the place was gone. I paid them over a hundred thousand dollars over a period of time, and thought it was going towards my debt. But, it didn’t.
Then, I tried to file for bankruptcy, and the lawyers, that i have been paying for almost a year over three thousand for their services, haven’t done a single thing for me yet.
I’m on disability checks after getting hurt at my job at Kaiser, and haven’t been able to get to work since a year ago because during the physical therapy they re-tore my injury. But, since I was getting the disability checks, I have been living very frugally, but now the courts are taking all of my checks, and so I am left with nothing.
What advice could you give me. I have nothing right now and I am terrified.
Thank you so much

Go to the District Attorney’s Office and see if there is anything they can do to catch the scammers that ripped you off. Then go to the State Bar Association and complain about your bankruptcy attorney for not following through on your case. If you have filed bankruptcy, the courts would not be able to take anything until after your case is settled.
Best wishes.
