What Is Bankruptcy?
Bankruptcy is a legal process that helps people and businesses overcome debt and rebuild their finances. Once you file, an automatic stay goes into effect — stopping foreclosures, garnishments, and creditor lawsuits immediately.
The two most common forms of consumer bankruptcy are:
• Chapter 7 Bankruptcy (Liquidation):
Erases most unsecured debts — including credit cards, medical bills, and personal loans — while allowing you to keep exempt property such as your home and car.
• Chapter 13 Bankruptcy (Reorganization):
Creates an affordable repayment plan over three to five years, allowing you to catch up on missed payments while protecting your assets.
Our attorneys help you decide which chapter best fits your income, debts, and goals.
