Why Good Bankruptcy Attorneys Lose Clients (And What That Means for You)

Today on The Get Out of Debt Guy Show, Steve and Damon are together in person for a rare live conversation—and they’re diving deep into a topic most people avoid: bankruptcy attorneys.

After a lunch with a bankruptcy lawyer, they share insider perspectives on why so many people avoid bankruptcy even when it might be the best option. From emotional roadblocks and bad first impressions to sales tactics from debt relief companies that push people into costly mistakes—this episode unpacks it all. You’ll hear why some attorneys lose clients even when they have the right solution, how fear is often weaponized to sell debt programs, and why being your own advocate is the smartest move you can make.

They also break down:

• The emotional gap most attorneys miss

• Why rebuilding credit after bankruptcy might be easier than you think

• What real debt relief looks like (and what’s just hype)

• The importance of shopping for the right person, not just the right solution

This is the episode for anyone feeling stuck, judged, or confused about their next move.
