Bankruptcy Indiana

Indiana's always been a big auto and RV manufacturing state when it comes to jobs. As part of offering Indiana bankruptcy information, I make a special effort in my bankruptcy blog to keep readers and bankruptcy clients up to date on the job market here.  I and the Anderson bankruptcy lawyers who work in my offices there know the important link between jobs and successful emergence from bankruptcy.

As a debt consolidation lawyer who's worked with trucking and auto manufacturing employees over the years, I've found that many of them  have needed payday loan debt help in additiion to help with personal bankruptcy in Indiana. But, in order for a debt repayment plan of any kind to succeed, there must be reliable income from jobs.

Just two weeks ago, I was calling the Indiana employment news "more gray than green", but today I am happy to report, good news seems to outweigh bad, at least when it comes to companies involving products with wheels.

"Analysts project a 25-30% increase in recreational vehicle sales in 2010, and that is starting to translate into more jobs in Indiana," reports the Indianapolis Star. RV and travel trailer manufacturing has fallen 60% since 2006, so it's good to hear things are turning around.  The Goshen area expects to add two factories before year end, and Heartland Recreational Vehicles of Elkhart is hiring 200 production workers now and 200 more in March.

As an Indianapolis bankruptcy lawyer, I was especially glad to read about a different "wheel-based" company's plans.  Republic Airways will be creating 300 jobs here next year, adding $15 million in payroll to the company's Indianapolis operations.  The new jobs will include dispatchers, engineers, crew schedulers, and operations positions, with the average annual salary being $50,000.

While the thousands of new jobs planned in Fishers don't relate to autos, RV's, or planes, I expect plenty of wheeled vehicles will be involved in the construction of the 900-acre technology park there.

The one rather "gray" piece of "wheel" news involves Indiana state government's layoff of 42 truck and school bus inspectors.

As I continue my work as a debt consolidation lawyer in Indiana, offering help to stop foreclosure, student loan debt help, and small business bankruptcy help, I know that the key to success in every one of these areas is Indiana employment.  That's why I find all this "good news on wheels" to be so welcome during this holiday season!
