Bankruptcy cases are gen
erally filed under Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 of the Bankruptcy Code. Filing for bankruptcy can be very intimidating and confusing for most people. When filing for bankruptcy, it is very important that the information and paperwork are filed correctly to ensure that your bankruptcy claim is successful. An experienced bankruptcy lawyer can assist you with your bankruptcy claim, and help to make sure that the proper steps and precautions are being made when filing.
Chapter 7
Chapter 7 of the bankruptcy code is used to liquidate assets so that debts can be paid. This option allows those struggling with debt to obtain a fresh start and new financial beginning. Repayment plans are also available to get those struggling with debt back on track.
Chapter 13
Unlike Chapter 7, Chapter 13 of the bankruptcy code does not involve the liquidation of assets. Chapter 13 allows the debtor to keep property and negotiate bills so that they can be consolidated. This method of bankruptcy requires more time than that of chapter 7 due to the repayment process. The repayment plan allows those struggling with debt to keep their assets as, well as pay off their bills.
