DALLAS, Jan. 25, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As the month long government shutdown drags on, Lee Law Firm, PLLC offers some Dallas-Fort Worth residents financial relief. Existing and new clients impacted by the government shutdown may be eligible to receive discounted legal services for their bankruptcy needs.
Nationwide around 800,000 federal workers are directly impacted by the government shutdown, forcing thousands of people in the Dallas-Fort Worth area to work without pay. Attorney Christopher Lee, understands that as the shutdown drags on, the bills will continue to mount—rent, mortgage payments, food, utility bills, and credit card debts won't wait on the deferred payments promised to workers.
"So many of our new and existing clients are facing serious financial hardships," Lee says. "Many have committed decades to serving our country as federal workers but through no fault of their own, they may now have no way to pay their day-to-day living expenses. We're hoping to help them get through these tough times by making it easier and more affordable for them to get the legal services they need."
Dallas-Fort Worth federal workers aren't the only casualties of the government shutdown, many businesses that depend on federal workers and government agencies are also suffering serious blows to their bottom-line. Restaurant owners, day care centers, and vendors that depend heavily on government contracts are all facing their own crises as the government shutdown slows their cash flow to a trickle and threatens to exhaust their cash reserves and credit lines.
"One of the biggest mistakes that people make in times like these is that they don't speak up when they're hurting," Lee says. "Sometimes when you're use to getting a paycheck regularly and it suddenly stops, you may feel too much pride to reach out for help. But when you don't get the help you need and you're struggling to put food on the table, it will only make things worse. If you're struggling because of the government shutdown, please reach out to us for help."
