Basic Types Of Bankruptcy Cases
I handle all types of individual and business bankruptcy cases including:
- Chapter 7 bankruptcy, which involves liquidating assets (selling property) to satisfy creditors. Note that for many people, much or all of your property may be safeguarded. Chapter 7 is often a smart option for lower-income individuals or families who don’t own a home.
- Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which involves consolidating debts and creating an affordable repayment plan that lasts three or five years. This form is bankruptcy is available to income-earners who may also own a home.
- Chapter 11 bankruptcy, which is geared toward businesses or high net worth individuals. It involves creating a reorganization plan to address debts. Businesses can remain in operation during the course of the proceedings.
I can help you determine whether bankruptcy is right for you, and if so, which type to pursue.
