Known as the liquidation chapter, or a “straight” bankruptcy, a Chapter 7 bankruptcy is an option that is available to certain debtors, while other situations may be better suited for a Chapter 11 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. If you qualify based on your income, working with a Chapter 7 attorney to file this kind of bankruptcy will discharge your debts that are dischargeable under the Bankruptcy Code, which typically includes all unsecured debts such as credit cards, medical bills, etc. However, as we can explain in detail as your Chapter 7 attorney, certain debts are non-dischargeable, such as taxes, alimony, child support, student loans, etc. Furthermore, in exchange for this type of debt relief, you may have to give up certain assets you cannot protect under law so that those items may be sold, or liquidated, as part of the bankruptcy estate.
The principle advantage of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy is that you have no further obligations to pay debts covered under the bankruptcy once they have been discharged. It may even be possible to avoid foreclosure by filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy. However, to learn more about this option, as well as the other types of debt relief that may be available to you, contact Yesner & Boss, P.L. today. As your Chapter 7 attorney, we offer a free consultation to answer any questions you may have, whether you’re located in Tampa, Bradenton, Lakeland, Sarasota, or anywhere in the state of Florida.
