The New Bankruptcy Laws and Chapter 7 and 13

The recent changes in the bankruptcy laws have been primarily beneficial to creditors. However, while the new laws make it harder to qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, most debtors are still able to get debt relief. If you do not qualify under Chapter 7, you may still qualify under Chapter 13.

  • Chapter 7 bankruptcy is called liquidation bankruptcy because it involves the sale of many of the debtor's assets to pay off part off part of the debt.
  • Chapter 13 bankruptcy, called the wage earner's plan, allows debtors with steady income to formulate a manageable debt repayment plan.

In bankruptcy, certain possessions such as a personal car and family home are usually protected. Both forms give relief - through sale and discharge or repayment - from credit card debt, auto loans, medical bills, and other unsecured debt.

We understand that many financial hardships result from the loss of a job, a divorce, or other unpredictable situations. We assist our clients with all their legal issues, and show them how the law can protect them and provide relief.

Benefits of Chapter 7 and 13 Bankruptcy

Regardless whether you file for Chapter 7 or 13, filing for bankruptcy has immediate relief and effects:

  • Stop foreclosure of your home: Filing "stays" (stops) the foreclosure process.
  • Stop creditor harassment and collection calls: As soon as you file, all creditors must call us-not you.

We view bankruptcy as a financial solution to a certain financial problem. We are experienced, respectful and caring lawyers who can help you determine if Chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy is right for you.
