One possible answer to overwhelming debt is bankruptcy. While some people think that filing for bankruptcy means failure, nothing could be further from the truth. Filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy can give you the fresh start you need to start working toward a more secure future. This form of bankruptcy involves liquidating your assets to pay off your debts. When you are ready to start taking back control of your finances, don't wait. Schedule a free consultation to discuss whether you're eligible for Chapter 7.
If Chapter 7 bankruptcy doesn't seem right for you, Chapter 13 might be. When you file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you'll commit to a repayment plan. For individuals with a stable income and the desire to maintain ownership of their assets, Chapter 13 could be a great fit. While it may seem as though you'll never regain power over your life, it's important to remember that you do have options. Contact me today to find out how you can move forward.
