Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a process provided for
under United States federal law by which you
are entitled to a fresh start.



Chapter 7 may eliminate most kinds of unsecured debt. Some examples of unsecured debts are credit cards; medical bills; most personal loans; judgments resulting from car accidents; and deficiencies on repossessed vehicles.

In addition to getting rid of your debt, you typically can keep all of your property. As long as your car and mortgage payments are current, and there is no significant equity in your property, we should have no problem making the arrangements for you to reaffirm the debt. Keep your home, keep your car, keep your personal belongings, but eliminate your debt; that is our goal. You may be able to use Chapter 7 to provide you with many benefits.


Stop Creditor Harassment

If creditors are bothering you at work, harassing your family, friends and neighbors, or calling at all hours, you can put an end to it immediately. We will keep the creditors off your back, and you can stop paying your creditors immediately.


Eliminate Repossession Debts

After a vehicle finance company repossesses your car they auction it to reduce their loss. You are still responsible for the balance on the car, called a 'deficiency balance'. You can eliminate your liability for the entire deficiency balance. Remove the risk of lawsuits and garnishments by filing a Chapter 7.


Stop Garnishments

A Chapter 7 bankruptcy is one of the most effective ways to immediately stop garnishments. Garnishments can diminish your hard-earned income making it nearly impossible for you to afford basic necessities.


Stop lawsuits related to those car accidents

If you are being sued, and you own a home, we strongly urge you to speak with a legal representative immediately about filing a bankruptcy. A bankruptcy will stop a lawsuit immediately and prevent your creditors from placing a lien on your home or garnishing your hard-earned wages.
