HOW A CHAPTER 7 BANKRUPTCY ATTORNEY CAN HELP YOU


If you are at the point that you feel that you’re drowning in debt with no lifeline to hold on to, filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy could be the best way to reset your life and get it back on track. Filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy lets you obtain a discharge of debts signed by a bank-ruptcy judge. This option is for people who have no immediate way to pay off their debts because of certain circumstances like death in the family, medical expenses, drop in household income, or job loss, and they are unable to come to an agreement with the creditors about how to resolve their financial problems.

Every situation, however, is different and should be treated as such. There are still conditions to be met, including passing a means test and identifying dischargeable and non-dischargeable debts. A Chapter 7 Ft Lauderdale bankruptcy lawyer can help you navigate through what you can and cannot do in your route to eliminate your bad debt.

    What is bankruptcy?

    Bankruptcy is a legal option that allows people or businesses to eliminate debts they are unable to repay. Through bankruptcy, debtors can either discharge the majority of their debts, or create a structured payment plan to repay some or all of the debt.

    What are my options if I want to file for personal bankruptcy?

    People who file for bankruptcy normally file for either Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bank-ruptcy. In Chapter 7, most debts are discharged and some assets might be liquidated to cover debts. Chapter 13, on the other hand, restructures your debts into an affordable monthly repayment plan. At the end of the plan, the remaining debts are discharged.

    What is the better option between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy?

    There is no common answer as each bankruptcy case is unique. There are different factors at play such as the types of debt you are dealing with, the assets you want to keep, and your ability to generate income and repay at least some of your debts. Generally, however, if you have minimal assets and low income, Chapter 7 is probably the better option. If you have assets you want to protect, and your income demonstrates an ability to repay some or all of your debt, then Chapter 13 may be the best option. Either way, it is best to consult with an experienced Florida bankruptcy lawyer at The McCue Law Firm before taking any action.
