About the practice
Attorney directories associate Juan H. Hong with Chapter 7 liquidation and Chapter 13 wage-earner repayment plans—the two most common consumer bankruptcy chapters filed in the Eastern District of New York, which includes Queens. Bankruptcy allows eligible debtors to obtain discharge of unsecured debts or reorganize payments under court supervision, subject to means testing, credit counseling requirements, and asset exemption limits under New York and federal rules.
Jackson Heights sits within a high-volume federal bankruptcy court district. Local practitioners often handle initial consultations covering foreclosure defense coordination, creditor harassment, medical debt, and small-business reorganization when applicable. Prospective clients should bring pay stubs, tax returns, mortgage statements, and lawsuit papers to the first meeting for accurate chapter recommendations.
Practice focus
- Chapter 7 bankruptcy — liquidation pathway for qualifying individuals seeking discharge of unsecured debts.
- Chapter 13 bankruptcy — three- to five-year repayment plans for debtors with regular income who need to cure mortgage arrears or protect non-exempt assets.
- Creditor negotiations — pre-filing workouts where bankruptcy is not yet necessary.
- Bilingual client service — English and Korean consultation scheduling advertised via online booking.
Who they serve
The firm primarily serves Queens residents, small landlords, and micro-business owners facing unsustainable unsecured debt, wage garnishment, or foreclosure pressure. Korean-speaking households in northern Queens may prefer counsel comfortable explaining automatic-stay rules, trustee meetings, and discharge timelines in their primary language.
Many Jackson Heights clients work in restaurant, construction, or healthcare jobs with variable income—Chapter 13 plans must account for seasonal earnings when proposing monthly trustee payments. Roosevelt Avenue’s transit access via the E, F, M, R, and 7 trains makes evening consultation feasible for commuters who cannot leave work during standard business hours; confirm appointment blocks when booking through online scheduling.
Languages and accessibility
English and Korean are indicated on public booking materials. The Roosevelt Avenue location is a ground-floor commercial strip common in Jackson Heights—confirm step-free access when scheduling if mobility accommodations are needed. Evening or weekend hours were not verified on this desk review.
