Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Chapter 7 is designed to eliminate unsecured debts such as credit cards, medical bills, and personal loans. For qualifying individuals, it can provide fast relief and a clean financial reset.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Chapter 13 allows you to reorganize debt into a court-approved repayment plan. This option is often used to stop foreclosure, catch up on missed payments, or protect assets that would otherwise be at risk.

FAQs

1. Are bankruptcy lawyers worth it?

Yes. A bankruptcy attorney reduces the risk of dismissal, protects assets, and improves your chances of a successful discharge, especially in Chapter 13 cases.

2. What disqualifies you from filing bankruptcy?

Fraud, missing required credit counseling, filing too soon after a prior bankruptcy, failing the Chapter 7 means test, or incomplete paperwork can disqualify you. Recent luxury purchases, large cash advances, or unpaid court fees can also cause issues.

3. How can you file for bankruptcy if you have no money?

You may qualify for a Chapter 7 filing fee waiver, pay fees in installments, or through a Chapter 13 repayment plan. Free legal aid, pro bono attorneys, or approved self-help tools may also be available.

4. Can creditors come back after bankruptcy?

No. Once a debt is discharged, creditors are permanently barred from collecting it under federal law.

5. Which bankruptcy clears all debt without paying?

Chapter 7 bankruptcy clears most unsecured debts without a repayment plan. Eligibility depends on income, assets, and passing the means test.
