What Is Bankruptcy?
Bankruptcy is a legal process that gives people overwhelmed by debt a chance to start fresh. It immediately halts creditor actions — including foreclosure, repossession, and garnishment — under the protection of federal law.
The two primary types of bankruptcy for consumers are:
• Chapter 7 Bankruptcy (Liquidation):
This option allows you to discharge most unsecured debts — such as credit cards, medical bills, and personal loans — often without losing your property thanks to New York’s exemption laws.
• Chapter 13 Bankruptcy (Reorganization):
This plan consolidates your debts into one affordable monthly payment, typically over three to five years, while allowing you to keep your home, car, and other key assets.
Our attorneys evaluate your situation to determine which chapter best fits your goals and eligibility.
