Bankruptcy Legal Services

If you are currently exploring your bankruptcy options, it is important to understand the advantages of both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy:

• Chapter 7 bankruptcy eliminates debt. When most people think of bankruptcy, they think of Chapter 7. Debtors are allowed to keep some property, but must give up some to creditors to settle outstanding debts. A bankruptcy means test determines eligibility for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
• Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to eliminate your debt through a reorganization of your debts through a court-approved payment plan over a three- to five-year period.

Filing for either type of bankruptcy will stop foreclosure or repossession actions. It will also stop creditor harassment so you won't receive any more threatening phone calls or letters. Learn about common bankruptcy myths and misconceptions.
