About Walter A. Metzen

I'm Walter Metzen, a Board Certified Consumer Bankruptcy Attorney located in Michigan with offices in Detroit and Royal Oak, Michigan. My office has handled over 13,000 personal bankruptcy cases in the past 20+ years. I pride myself in offering quality legal representation with very affordable legal fees. Furthermore, unlike many law firms that handle consumer bankruptcy filings either Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, your appointment is with an experienced bankruptcy attorney as opposed to a secretary or paralegal. We pride ourselves in giving personal attention to our clients. Our law firm primarily represents individuals and small businesses, not large corporations. The firm believes that bankruptcy is an honest solution and offers a free initial consultation.
