What You Need to Know About Bankruptcy
|
The current economy has impacted everyone, and millions of people are
struggling with financial problems they never anticipated. Bankruptcy is a
way for individuals and business who are overwhelmed by debt to discharge
their debts or reorganize their debts and start fresh. Bankruptcy is governed
by the federal law found in Title 11 of the United States Code.
Bankruptcy is designed to help people like you who are struggling with the
following:
Medical Bills Credit Card Debt Home Foreclosure Car Repossession Lawsuits and Garnishments Unemployment and loss of income Student Loans Divorce Creditor Harassment Problems with the IRS
|
There are two types of consumer bankruptcy that can help you get back on your
feet: Chapter 7 Bankruptcy and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy.
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
If you qualify for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, you will be able to wipe out (liquidate) all
of your unsecured debt such as credit cards, medical bills, pay day loans,
personal loans, and more. Eligibility for Chapter 7 is based on a government
formula called the "Means Test" that compares your income and expenses to
the IRS Standards.
Please call us at 817-291-3999 or email us now for more information and for a
free evaluation to see if you qualify for Chapter 7.
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Almost everyone can qualify for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy to reorganize your debts
and make them more manageable. Chapter 13 was designed by Congress to
stop foreclosures and repossessions and help you get caught up on your
mortgage and car payments by putting them into a payment plan over the course
of three years or five years. Depending on your income and expenses, you may
be able to eliminate all or part of your unsecured debt, including credit cards,
medical bills, pay day loans, personal loans, and more. Any remaining debt can
also be put into the monthly plans and made more manageable by allowing you
to pay it off as part of the three or five year plan. You can also put back child
support and IRS Tax debt into the payment plan.
Please call us at 817-291-3999 or email us now for more information and for a
free evaluation to see how you qualify for Chapter 13.
Options If You Own Your Own Business
If you own your own business and are struggling with debt, be sure to contact us
about your options under a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy where you can liquidate your
debt (and close the business) or a Chapter 13 or Chapter 11 Bankruptcy that
can reorganize your debt to make it more manageable while you continue to
operate the business. Please note that we do not handle Chapter 11 cases at
this time, but we would be happy to refer you to a Chapter 11 attorney if Chapter
7 is not right for you.
Please call us at 817-291-3999 or email us now for more information and for a
free evaluation.
