Financial Hardships Can Be Overcome in Bankruptcy

Anyone can get laid off or get hit with unexpected medical expenses; such is life. These challenges do not have to derail your entire financial outlook, and filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy is actually a proactive step toward getting your financial life back in good standing.

Stop Creditors from Harassing You at Home and at Work

Are your creditors calling at all the wrong times, like when your boss is at your desk or when you are trying to have dinner with your family? When you file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, this will stop immediately, along with threats of home foreclosure, auto repossession, and wage garnishment. If you are a laid-off manufacturing worker or agricultural worker, bankruptcy may be your best legal option. If not, we will counsel you on other options.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: A Fresh Start

Even though the laws changed in 2005, Chapter 7 bankruptcy is still a viable option to eliminate debt if you are not in the position to pay it back. The program and those who qualify remained largely unchanged; however there are a few new requirements in place that we will discuss with you at the time of your free consultation. Under Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection, you can be absolved of your non-dischargeable debt. Most debt can be discharged except for student loans, recent taxes, and family support obligations such as alimony or child support. Many people do not realize that they are still eligible for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If you have questions regarding Chapter 7 bankruptcy, including your level of personal debt and assets, consult with us.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: Debt Reorganization
If your earnings and assets are at a high level that makes you ineligible for Chapter 7, consider resolving your situation by filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy. lawyers will help you make a plan to reorganize your debt and pay a manageable portion of it down over a three-to-five year period. Best of all, you will get to stay in your house and stop foreclosure proceedings. Other benefits of Chapter 13 bankruptcy include a personalized payment plan based upon your income and circumstances, elimination of late fees, penalties, and interest on unsecured debts and mortgage arrearages.

Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a proactive path toward renewing your credit and restoring your ability to keep what you have and build anew for the future. With a proactive reorganization plan in place, it will be your responsibility to pay off a portion of your non-dischargeable debt en route to a fresh start.
