By: Amstar Litigation Support Sarasota, FL., January 18, 2010 — Bankruptcy cases hit Florida hard in 2009, and experts predict that 2010 will likely be another record-breaking year. South Florida alone saw a 29% increase in consumer bankruptcy filings in 2009 over the previous year, according to the Sun Sentinel. Unemployment, credit card debt and high mortgages have contributed to the spike in bankruptcies. The inability for consumers to refinance their mortgages or acquire home equity loans to help ease the burden will likely thrust more individuals into bankruptcy proceedings in the coming months. For Florida attorneys, understanding and keeping abreast of the latest bankruptcy information can bolster their practices, especially in a time of recession.
