Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Advantages of partnering with a debt relief firm to file chapter 7

Stop collection efforts and wage garnishment
Get a fresh start on your financial future
Become debt free within 3 months of filing
protect your personal property

Filing for chapter 7 bankruptcy in NYC immediately protects you from collection efforts and wage garnishment and your personal debts are usually discharged (wiped clean) within 3 months of filing. To qualify for chapter 7 bankruptcy in New York, you must pass the means test and attend credit counseling.

Typically, chapter 7 bankruptcy requires a person to liquidate their assets to pay back their creditors as much as possible before the remaining debt is wiped clean, but there are many exceptions to this requirement, and hiring an experienced, NYC bankruptcy lawyer is your best bet for eliminating credit card debt, medical bills, and personal loans while keeping valuable assets, such as your house, car, sentimental heirlooms or property.

When the repayment period expires, your remaining debt is discharged with a few exceptions such as student loans. Advantages of debt relief through Chapter 13 bankruptcy include reductions in debt, a repayment program you can handle, and keeping your non-exempt assets normally liquidated in chapter 7 bankruptcy.
