WHAT IS CHAPTER 7 BANKRUPTCY?

Chapter 7 bankruptcy is primarily for those with a limited amount of assets to repossess. In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you can eliminate certain debts, such as credit card balances, medical bills, car title loans, and traffic tickets. Once your debts are discharged, you will not have to repay creditors and they cannot pursue further action against you. My number one goal is to help you through this incredibly tough time in your life by allowing you to rid yourself of as much debt as possible. Here are some important considerations to keep in mind as we work together:

• The law requires that you list and categorize all of your debts and assets. You will also most likely need to provide proof of income for the last 60 days and copies of federal income tax returns for the last four years. Finally, you must obtain the required credit counseling from an approved agency.

• You must pass the “means test” to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If your income is too high or it is determined that you can reasonably pay your debts, you may not qualify for Chapter 7 but you can still file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy.

• You do not have to forfeit all your property. Through Texas bankruptcy exemptions, most clients are able to keep their home, retirement savings, and personal possessions.

The main debt that is not forgiven under Chapter 7 is student loans in addition to recent IRS debts.

You deserve a second chance at achieving personal and financial well-being. Let’s work together to understand your case, discover strategies that might help, and move forward confidently. Every bankruptcy case is different, so I’ll be sure to provide tailored strategies that suit your needs. Ultimately, I will be able to guide you through every step of the Chapter 7 Bankruptcy process, including:

• Filing your petition with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court

• Advising you on the steps you will need to complete during the filing process

• Communicating with your creditors so that you don't have to

• Helping you get your finances back on track

Nobody wants to file for bankruptcy, but sometimes life happens. People need a way to seek a second chance, and bankruptcy can provide a much-needed way to start over. If you've been struggling to regain control of your finances and are considering bankruptcy, work with a skilled attorney who understands the complexities of bankruptcy.
