Veelvoorkomende uitdagingen van onze klanten — en hoe wij helpen.
Drowning in debt and can't see a way out?
Bankruptcy provides legal protection from creditors and a structured path to eliminate or repay debt. Most people who file wish they had done it sooner.
Afraid you'll lose your house, car, or retirement savings?
Federal and state exemptions protect essential assets. Most Chapter 7 filers keep everything they own. Chapter 13 is specifically designed to save homes and vehicles.
Harassed by debt collectors calling day and night?
The moment you file bankruptcy, an automatic stay goes into effect forcing all collection activity to stop immediately — calls, lawsuits, garnishments, everything.
Worried bankruptcy will ruin your credit forever?
Most clients see their credit scores improve within 12-18 months after discharge because the debt-to-income ratio dramatically improves. Bankruptcy is a tool for rebuilding, not an ending.
Veelgestelde Vragen
Vragen? Wij hebben de antwoorden.
Will I lose everything if I file Chapter 7?
No. Federal and state exemption laws protect essential assets including your home equity (up to limits), vehicle, retirement accounts, household goods, and tools of your trade. Most Chapter 7 filers keep all their property.
How long does bankruptcy stay on my credit report?
Chapter 7 stays on your credit report for 10 years, Chapter 13 for 7 years. However, the practical impact diminishes over time and many people qualify for mortgages within 2-4 years after discharge.
What debts can bankruptcy eliminate?
Bankruptcy can discharge credit card debt, medical bills, personal loans, old utility bills, and some older tax debts. It generally cannot discharge student loans, recent taxes, child support, or alimony.
How much does it cost to file bankruptcy?
Court filing fees are approximately $338 for Chapter 7 and $313 for Chapter 13. Attorney fees vary but typically range from $1,000-$2,500 for Chapter 7 and $2,500-$5,000 for Chapter 13. Many attorneys offer payment plans.
Can I file bankruptcy on medical bills only?
Bankruptcy covers all qualifying debts — you cannot selectively discharge only medical bills. However, if medical debt is your primary burden, Chapter 7 can wipe it out along with other unsecured debts.
Wat Onze Klanten Zeggen
Neem niet alleen ons woord ervoor — hoor het van onze tevreden klanten.
“I was $87,000 in credit card debt and couldn't sleep at night. Chapter 7 gave me a clean slate and I'm already rebuilding my credit.”
James Thomas
“They saved our home from foreclosure. The Chapter 13 plan let us catch up on our mortgage over 5 years and we never missed a payment.”
Maria White
“I was embarrassed to even make the call. They treated me with dignity and made the whole process less scary than I imagined.”
David Johnson
“The wage garnishment stopped the day they filed. I went from losing 25% of my paycheck to keeping every dollar I earned.”
