Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Full Video Transcript

Chapter 7 bankruptcy offers certain advantages for those in financial distress. Otherwise known as “liquidation,” Chapter 7 bankruptcy allows you to eliminate most of your debt, and start over. You will have the opportunity to create a new financial plan and establish a better credit rating. Best of all, filing for bankruptcy under Chapter 7 can help prevent creditors from harassing you by phone and mail. Filing Chapter 7 will influence your credit rating for up to 10 years, and some debts may not be cleared. These include student loans, court fines, taxes, and various others.
