You Do Not Have To Lose All Your Property

You may have been told that filing for Chapter 7 means you will be forced to give up all of your property. That is a myth. Through the use of exemptions, our firm can help you keep your most important items. And, as long as you are able to maintain payments on your house and car, you will be able to keep those as well.

How Does Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Work?

Chapter 7 bankruptcy, also known as liquidation bankruptcy, is the simplest way to eliminate debt. Many of your assets are sold in order to pay creditors. Going through this can be difficult, but it is truly a useful way to get things back under control. In Chapter 7, your unsecured debts will be eliminated and you will have a clean slate. Examples of dischargeable debts are:


  • Credit card bills
  • Medical bills
  • Personal loans
  • Debts from repossession of vehicles
  • Debts from foreclosures


In addition, a Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing gives you a variety of other benefits, including stopping wage garnishments and home foreclosures. It stops creditor harassment and gives you room to breathe.

Who Qualifies For Chapter 7?

Most people filing for bankruptcy prefer Chapter 7. However, laws passed in 2005 have made it more difficult for people to qualify for this form of debt relief. During a free initial consultation, we will assess your income, assets and debt to determine if you pass the “means test.” If your income ratio is too high to qualify for Chapter 7, we can help you explore Chapter 13 bankruptcy as an option.
