Implementing Solutions For Debt Relief

Debt can be like an anchor around your neck. The deeper you get, the higher the fees, late charges, interest… it is truly a vicious cycle. The good news is that debt relief is possible under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. With the help of an experienced attorney, you can use the law to get yourself out of debt once and for all and remove that weight off your shoulders.

Understanding Your Bankruptcy Options

There are several options to file for bankruptcy depending upon your circumstances, and whether you are filing on behalf of a family or a business. Our attorneys can skillfully evaluate your situation and guide you through:

  • Chapter 7 bankruptcy, also known as liquidation bankruptcy, is a means to getting a fresh financial start. It is typically used to discharge credit card debt, medical bills and other unsecured debts.
  • Chapter 11 bankruptcy is an effective method for business owners to restructure their debt. In a Chapter 11 bankruptcy, a business is still allowed to operate but must do so under the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court.
  • Chapter 13 bankruptcy, commonly referred to as reorganization bankruptcy, is a way to restructure existing debt. The debtor or debtors submit a repayment plan for approval. The plan can help with mortgage payment arrears, car payments, and IRS or other tax debts. The plan also helps with unsecured debt. Unsecured debt is paid without interest and typically is based upon what you can offer, not what you owe.
