chapter-7-bankruptcy

Chapter 7 bankruptcy is designed to wipe out debt and give you a fresh financial start. It stops collection activity and wipes out unsecured debt. In addition, it stops foreclosure and repossessions, and it allows you to return cars and houses without owing a deficiency balance. Click here to learn more about Chapter 7, and contact us to see if bankruptcy is the right solution for you.

chapter-13-bankruptcy

Chapter 13 bankruptcy stops foreclosures, repossessions, and wage garnishments and gives you a chance to repay debts while under the protection of the Bankruptcy Court. Chapter 13 plans often offer a repayment plan that is less than a debt consolidation plan offered by most credit counseling agencies.
