Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

A Chapter 7 bankruptcy, commonly known as “Liquidation,” can help get rid of nearly all of your debt. Chapter 7 bankruptcies will stop garnishments and lawsuits but can only be filed once every eight years. The main objective of filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy is to get a permanent “discharge” of many of your debts, giving you a fresh start.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

The other common form of bankruptcy is Chapter 13. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a repayment plan. If you are behind on your house, car or other payments and want to keep the property for which money is owed, a Chapter 13 may be the right solution for you. You may also file under Chapter 13 if you are ineligible to file under Chapter 7. A typical Chapter 13 repayment lasts from three to five years. Once you file for bankruptcy relief under Chapter 13, you will be able to stop bill collectors and creditor harassment. You can also file under Chapter 13 to prevent utility shut-offs, and stop repossessions and foreclosures.
