Bankruptcy lawyer at Holmes Law Office
Look at the attorney's in you geographic area. Check out their web sites, and resumes look for number of years practicing, in the bankruptcy area .If you are General Motors your needs will be different than if you are an individual or small business . The best way to tell is through their professional affiliations. Are they a member of the National association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys, or various debtor's bar associations. Web sites like AVVO that has a rating system where clients can post comments. Once you have narrowed your seach then " interview" the attorney. Ask qquestions like number of cases handled, professional affiliation, what has he or she done by way of continuing legal education , i.e. seminars, work shops etc. When was the last one. Rember you are hiring the lawyer. Ask questions about bankruptcy? Do they appear to be knowledgable? When you go to their office are you meeting the attorney, that will be handling the case or some staff member? Check out the Better Business Bureau and the State Bar Association for complaints or disciplinary actions.

Can you declare bankruptcy for a civil suit that wants a million dollars for crashing a friend’s car into their house?

This is the purpose of bankruptcy, to give people a fresh start when they have debt they can't pay. I would advise you to look into filing quickly, $1,000,000 is far over the unsecured debt limit for Chapter 13, but as long as it's just a lawsuit and not a judgment, then it's contingent and there is no limit on contingent debt. One aside, if you were under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident, it might be non-dischargeable.
