Our Personal Bankruptcy Story

Sheree’s & Kerry’s  Bankruptcy Story

It was 2003, and life was looking pretty good. Sheree had just graduated from UNC Law, ready to take on the world as a new attorney. I (Kerry) was doing just fine as a children’s magician in the Triangle. Sheree landed a job at a bankruptcy law firm in Boone, NC. With a young baby and exciting new beginnings, everything seemed great.

But once we moved to Boone, I ran into a problem. Traveling back to the Triangle for magic shows was tough—it was a four-hour drive each way, and it really took a toll. Still, Sheree had a job, and we were making it work!

Then something unexpected happened. Sheree noticed her new boss wasn’t exactly following the rules. It bothered her so much that we reached out to the NC Bar Ethics Panel to see if her boss’s practices were legal and ethical. Turns out, they weren’t. The Ethics Panel also warned that if her boss got caught, Sheree could be held responsible too, putting her law license at risk.

Talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place! I couldn’t fully support us like I had in the Triangle because Boone’s population was too small, and the long drives to Raleigh were exhausting. Plus, we’d just signed a lease on a house we could no longer afford, and those hefty student loans were looming over us. What could we do if Sheree quit to protect her ethics?

In the end, we didn’t see any other choice. Sheree quit, and we became our own first bankruptcy clients. Filing for bankruptcy allowed us to break the lease and move into a smaller house with space for an office. Sheree decided to start her own practice, and that’s where things turned around.

Thankfully, I had some experience with web design from my programming days, so I built a website for Sheree’s new firm. It was tough at first, but little by little, things improved. By 2005, changes to bankruptcy laws caused a rush of people needing help, and business started booming.

Now, it’s 2025, and filing for bankruptcy feels like a distant memory. Sheree has become one of the top bankruptcy attorneys in the country. Our decision to treat clients like family has paid off in every way. Today, we’re proud to have the best Google reviews in the state! (Check them out here: http://CameronBankruptcyLawReviews.com.)
