Talk to a Lawyer About How Chapter 7 Benefits You
Chapter 7 bankruptcy provides for "liquidation" of your existing debts through sale of your non-exempt property and distribution of the proceeds to your creditors. At The Law Offices of Neil Crane, LLC, in Hamden, Connecticut, we often guide our clients through the Chapter 7 bankruptcy process while explaining to them the benefits of filing this type of bankruptcy.
There are many benefits to filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy:
- Unsecured debt relief: Filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy relieves most unsecured debt obligations — like credit card debt and personal loans — and enables people to focus on more critical debts, like making mortgage payments on their homes. Secured debt is a loan in which the borrower pledges some asset, like a car or property, as collateral for the loan. Unsecured debt is a loan that is not backed by collateral.
- State and federal tax relief: Chapter 7 bankruptcy can provide for discharge of certain federal and state tax debt, but it is best to talk with an attorney about your specific situation.
