Types of Bankruptcy

Most individuals who file for bankruptcy choose either a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 case. In Chapter 7 “liquidation” bankruptcy, property gets sold to repay creditors in exchange for debt relief (although many people keep most, if not all, of their assets). In Chapter 13 “consolidation” bankruptcy, you get to keep all of your property, but you pay into a three- to five-year repayment plan. Attorneys from our network can explain which type of bankruptcy will best protect your assets while wiping out the largest amount of debt, so you’ll know you’re choosing the right path for you.

One of the benefits of hiring a bankruptcy attorney is that you won’t have to answer annoying creditor calls—your lawyer will take them instead. And, once you file your case with the court, the calls will stop altogether. The “automatic stay” order prevents creditors from attempting to collect from you during the bankruptcy process.
