Understanding Your Bankruptcy and Debt Relief Options

At our firm, we help clients understand their options and pursue the bankruptcy and debt relief solution that fits their needs, including:

  • Chapter 7 bankruptcy : We can help you determine if you qualify for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy under the means test. If you do qualify, this form of bankruptcy can allow you to discharge unsecured debt such as credit card debts and medical bills.
  • Chapter 13 bankruptcy : If you need to reorganize your debt or temporarily stop an impending foreclosure, Chapter 13 bankruptcy might be the answer for you. In this type of bankruptcy, a trustee will develop a payment plan for you, allowing you to pay down your debts based on your income and expenses. This plan usually lasts three to five years, and at the end of that time the remaining balance owed on most of your unsecured debts will be discharged.
  • Chapter 11 bankruptcy: This complex form of bankruptcy is used by businesses and individuals to reorganize complex debts that extend beyond the limits of Chapter 13. In this type of bankruptcy, the debtor acts as the trustee and must submit regular reports to the court about the cash flow and operating expenses of the business. While Chapter 11 debt reorganization can be more expensive, it can allow you to restructure a business and get your debt under control.
