Personal Bankruptcy

Personal Bankruptcy: Are you overwhelmed with debt and cannot make your monthly payments? Have you been sued by a credit card company or a collection agency? Are your wages being garnished? Have you received a foreclosure notice on your home? You may be eligible for bankruptcy and be able to save your home and have your unsecured debt discharged.

By filing a chapter 7 bankruptcy you can get rid of your credit card debts, some judgments, medical debt, personal guarantees for a business, collection lawsuits, wage garnishment, and most importantly stop foreclosure on your home. In a chapter 7 bankruptcy, such debts can be discharged, in other words, they can be “wiped out” and go away forever.

If you do not qualify for a chapter 7 bankruptcy due to higher income or a recent filing of chapter 7, you may still get rid of some debt and be eligible to stop foreclosure and garnishment by filing a chapter 13 bankruptcy. In a chapter 13 bankruptcy, you are put in a 3-5 year plan where you pay back some of your debt pursuant to a payment plan.

A Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 filing can help get rid of these debts, but it is important that you understand the differences between them and intelligently select the best solution for you.
