Bankruptcy Solutions
Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 are the two types of bankruptcy filings most commonly used
by consumers. Chapter 7, often called straight bankruptcy, is a liquidation
process in which your nonexempt assets are sold off to pay your creditors.
Any remaining unsecured debt (e.g. credit card debt, utility bills, medical
bills, etc.) after the liquidation process is forgiven.
Chapter 13 is a different form of bankruptcy where you create a plan to pay a portion
or all of your debt over a 3-5-year period. Generally, at the end of the
repayment period, whatever unsecured debt remains is forgiven.
