Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 eliminates debts through asset liquidation, while Chapter 13 establishes repayment plans. Chapter 7 typically completes in 90 days, whereas Chapter 13 lasts 3-5 years.
Will bankruptcy stop creditor harassment calls?
Yes, bankruptcy filing invokes automatic stays that immediately stop all collection calls and legal actions from creditors and debt collectors.
Can I keep my home when filing bankruptcy?
Most homeowners retain their property through Chapter 13 repayment plans or by meeting exemption requirements. Lien stripping may eliminate second mortgages in certain cases.
How does bankruptcy affect credit scores?
While initially impacting credit, most clients see improvement within 1-2 years post-discharge. Responsible financial management enables rebuilding credit through secured loans and timely payments.
What debts cannot be discharged in bankruptcy?
Non-dischargeable debts include student loans, recent taxes, child support, and criminal restitution. Most unsecured debts like credit cards and medical bills qualify for discharge.
Can I file bankruptcy without an attorney?
While legally possible, complex bankruptcy procedures require professional guidance. Our attorneys ensure proper filings, maximize exemptions, and protect client interests throughout the process.
