Brunson Law LLC

Brunson Law LLC is a bankruptcy attorney in Columbia, SC. The firm represents consumer debtors in Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases. In Chapter 13, a repayment plan is built around what a client owes, with secured and priority debt paid in full and unsecured creditors typically receiving a low percentage; mortgage payments continue to be made directly to the lender, while the trustee payment can cover mortgage arrears, car payments, child support arrears, taxes and financed furniture. Plan payments account for all income, including non-taxable income such as VA benefits and social security, and for both spouses' income when a client is married. In Chapter 7, the firm handles the liquidation of assets, explains the exemptions that protect property, and distinguishes a No Asset case, where the trustee abandons all assets, from an Asset case, where the trustee may sell property above the exemption amount. Colleen Brunson has practiced in SC since 2004 and founded the firm in January 2012 to tailor legal services to the needs of individual clients. She graduated from the University of SC cum laude in 2000 and from the University of SC School of Law in 2004, and previously represented SC debtors at Moss & Associates, Attorneys, PA, working on Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases.

The office sits on Marion Street in downtown Columbia, a short walk from Taylor Street and about a tenth of a mile from Prisma Health Baptist Hospital. The Tunnelvision public artwork, the Site of Blanding House memorial, and two clinics are all within roughly a tenth of a mile.

Colleen Brunson holds an AV Preeminent Rating from Martindale-Hubbell, the highest possible rating in both legal ability and ethical standards. She is a member of the American Bankruptcy Institute, the SC Bar, the International Women's Insolvency and Restructuring Confederation, and the SC Association for Justice, and she served on the board of the SC Bankruptcy Law Association.
