• Myth: Some consumers believe Chapter 7 bankruptcy is no longer an option. Although the new laws have made it more difficult for consumers to qualify for bankruptcy, it can still be an option. The paperwork and process have become more involved. An experienced attorney from our firm can help you through this process and discuss your options.
• Myth: Many people think that by filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy, they will lose all their property. This is not necessarily the case. Our firm can help you maintain your property, such as your home and car.
• Myth: Many clients are under the impression that filing Chapter 13 will require paying back all creditors. Our experienced attorneys are often able to obtain repayment plans that do not require all debts to be paid.
• Myth: People are often concerned that bankruptcy will have a negative impact on their credit score. In nearly all circumstances, however, filing bankruptcy is the first step toward rebuilding credit.
• Myth: Many people think that they can file for bankruptcy only one time. Under the new bankruptcy laws, it is more difficult to file multiple times, but it is possible.
