Because when it comes to debt relief the details really do matter.
Depending on a number of factors including your ability to repay debt, we may recommend either Chapter 13 or Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is for those who can’t make regular payments to pay off their debt. It allows you to wipe out most of the debt that isn’t secured – like credit cards, for instance. It is sometimes called a “liquidation” bankruptcy, because you will sell some of your assets for cash to pay off debt. The goal is a fresh financial start. (Source: irs.gov)
Here are a few details:
- Chapter 7 will end most, or even all, of your debt
- It can stop the debt collection phone calls, garnishments, liens, repossessions, and foreclosures
- You might have to give up some of the things that you owe money on
- Your car and home will remain in your possession
- Chapter 7 isn’t as harmful to your long-term credit score as many people think
If you have mounting debt that could lead to repossession or foreclosure, bankruptcy may be your best option. But it takes a skilled and experienced bankruptcy attorney to determine what you qualify for.
In your initial consultation with The Craig Black Law Firm LLC, we will take a look at your financial situation and give you options. You’ll also discuss the up and downsides of filing bankruptcy, so you will have all the information you need to be comfortable with your decision.
