Job loss, foreclosure, illness, etc. There are many reasons why you may be behind on your bills and looking for a solution. Bankruptcy may be the right choice for you.
At its most basic level, bankruptcy is a means for honest, hardworking people to obtain relief from overwhelming debt. Some types of bankruptcy erase most debt altogether, while other types allow people and businesses to restructure their debt so they can make payments to their creditors while still making ends meet. At one time bankruptcy carried a heavy stigma. Today, however, it is viewed as a means of obtaining a fresh financial start. Since bankruptcy is often the result of severe distress such as divorce, death of a family member, illness, disability, or business failure, lenders often look at consumers who have filed for bankruptcy with a more sympathetic eye.
Bankruptcy is mainly governed by federal law; however, state consumer and commercial laws do carry some influence.
- Straight Bankruptcy: It completely releases you from most of your debts, except of student loans and child support payments, If you are making payments on a car or home, and you want to keep these assets, you will make arrangements with your creditors to keep paying for them.
- Reorganization: Allows business owners to make payments to creditors while still operating their business. This type of bankruptcy may be the best option if your business has significant income and assets.
- Wage Earner's Bankruptcy:This type of filing does not erase personal debt; rather, it gives you the chance to make payments to your creditors over a period of time - usually 3-5 years. It allows you to keep your assets while still reducing your debt.
- Fee Awards. Separation and divorce proceeding can result in substantial fees for attorneys, accountants, appraisers, and other experts. Under certain circumstances, a judge can order a party to pay those fees.
