What Is Bankruptcy?
Bankruptcy is a legal process that allows individuals and businesses struggling with debt to eliminate or reorganize what they owe under federal court protection. Once you file, an automatic stay immediately stops foreclosure, wage garnishment, and collection activity.
There are two main consumer bankruptcy options:
• Chapter 7 Bankruptcy (Liquidation):
This option wipes out most unsecured debts such as credit cards, medical bills, and personal loans. Most clients keep their homes, cars, and essential property under New York’s exemption laws.
• Chapter 13 Bankruptcy (Reorganization):
This plan allows you to consolidate your debts into one affordable monthly payment over three to five years while retaining your property.
Our attorneys assess your unique financial situation to determine which chapter best meets your needs and goals.
Do I Need a Bankruptcy Attorney?
Bankruptcy laws are detailed and time-sensitive. A single error could cause delays or even result in case dismissal.
