Legal Services for New York City Bankruptcy Project

The New York City Bankruptcy Assistance Project (NYC BAP) provides free legal assistance to low-income New Yorkers who are either considering bankruptcy, or have already filed a case and have a legal problem. For assistance, you must live in New York City, and be low-income. Our definition of "low-income" is 200% of the Federal Poverty level?about $1,600 per month gross income for a family of one; about $3,200 per month for a family of four. We consider other factors as well. Call us if you think you might qualify for services. We can usually tell you over the phone if you qualify.
