Would you like to put an end to your worries about paying your debts? Bankruptcy may be an excellent solution.
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy eliminates debt through a relatively simple court process that only takes approximately three-months. In most cases, creditors are not able to prevent the debt from being discharged. Chapter 7 bankruptcy gives distressed debtors a Fresh Start.
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy allows individuals to pay their debt over a period of time through a court-approved repayment plan. In some cases, the individual only has to repay part of their debt. Chapter 13 bankruptcy often provides a form of debt relief that is superior to other debt relief options.
Get Started: What Type of Bankruptcy is Right for Me?
Bankruptcy Will Immediately Stop Collections
As soon as the bankruptcy case is filed, a powerful injunction (the "automatic stay") goes into effect and immediately prohibits creditors from taking further collection action. This will stop:
- creditor phone calls
- wage garnishments
- lawsuits
- foreclosures
- repossessions
Protection of Assets
If you are considering filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you will need to know which exemptions are available to protect your assets. In some cases, an individual must be willing to surrender certain assets in order to receive a discharge. But in many other instances, debtors in Chapter 7 are able to protect all assets by effective use of the available exemption allowances.
Chapter 13 protects all assets, in most cases. It also allows the individual to surrender assets if the individual wishes to do so.
Rebuilding Your Credit
Many people mistakenly believe that bankruptcy will permanently lower their credit score. In actuality, most bankruptcy debtors are able to rebuild their credit score within a relatively short period of time.
