Is Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Right for You?
Generally speaking, if you have substantial unsecured debt, are struggling to keep up with payments and have little or no income left over after basic expenses, Chapter 7 bankruptcy may be right for you. Here are a few more questions you may want to consider before filing:
- Do you have possessions you would lose? Generally speaking, you may be allowed to keep most of your assets, including your house, car, clothing, wages and public benefits.
- Is your credit already beyond repair? If you are worried that Chapter 7 might ruin your credit, it is very possible that your credit is already severely damaged and bankruptcy may be the best way to restore it.
- Are all of your debts dischargeable? If your debts are from student loans, missed child support or alimony payments, luxuries or unpaid taxes, they may not be dischargeable under Chapter 7.
- Are you "judgment proof"? If your income is primarily from public assistance like Social Security, and you have no major assets, creditors may not be able to collect on any judgment against you, even if you don't file for bankruptcy. Filing for bankruptcy, however, can bring an end to the harassment from your creditors.
At Danton & Smyk, we can thoroughly review your financial situation to determine if Chapter 7 bankruptcy is the right option for you. Please note, you may need to consider Chapter 13 bankruptcy or perhaps, not filing for bankruptcy at all.
