What Are The Benefits Of Filing For Bankruptcy?
Bankruptcy provides a legal way to manage or eliminate certain debts. Depending on your financial situation, you may qualify for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
Filing for bankruptcy can offer several benefits:
- Protection from creditors: An automatic stay generally stops collection calls, lawsuits, wage garnishments and certain repossession efforts.
- Debt relief: You may be able to eliminate qualifying debts, including credit card balances, medical bills and personal loans.
- Property protection: Bankruptcy exemptions may allow you to keep your home, vehicle and other essential belongings.
- A fresh financial start: Reducing your debt can help you rebuild your finances and move forward with greater peace of mind.
Bankruptcy does not eliminate every debt or guarantee protection for all property. Our lawyers can explain which benefits may apply to your situation and help you understand your options.
Understanding Your Bankruptcy Options
There are two common types of personal bankruptcy. Each offers a different way to address financial problems.
- Chapter 7 bankruptcy: This option allows eligible individuals to eliminate many unsecured debts without a repayment plan. However, the bankruptcy trustee may sell nonexempt property to pay creditors.
- Chapter 13 bankruptcy: This option allows eligible individuals with regular income to repay all or part of their debts through a court-approved plan lasting three to five years. It may also help homeowners catch up on missed mortgage payments.
Attorney Burnett can review your income, debts and assets to help you determine which option best fits your needs.
