Education and Experience
Graduated from Thomas M Cooley Law School in 1990 with a JD. Admitted to the Florida Bar in 1991.
It was in 2001 when Mr. Zimmerman first became interested in bankruptcy law. Since that time his bankruptcy practice continually expanded and now individual consumer bankruptcy is the bulk of his practice.
During his bankruptcy practice he has had the opportunity to deal with many issues in bankruptcy, including but not limited to:
1. Non discharge of student loans (the undue burden of proving an undue hardship)
2. Equitable verses legal interest in motor vehicles
3. Fraudulent convenances
4. Challenges to Florida exemptions
5. Discharge and non discharge of income taxes
6. Florida tenancy by entirety of joint bank accounts and other personal property
7. Determination of secured status of creditors
8. Judicial lien removal from homestead
9. Objections to confirmation of Chapter 13 plans
10. Challenges to Chapter 7 filings when the debtor passes the means test
The list above is but a few of the more common issues that arise in consumer bankruptcy cases. It takes time for a lawyer to gain experience in the mutipule issues that can arise.
Mr.Zimmerman has the experience that was gained from dealing with many diverse issues and he was actively practice bankruptcy law in October of 2005 when sweeping changes were made to the US Bankruptcy Code.
