What Can You Do with Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?

  • Eliminate Your Unsecured Debts: By filing for Chapter 7 in Lake Elsinore CA, you can relieve yourself of the burden posed by many types of unsecured debts such as:
  • Credit card debt
  • Personal loans
  • Medical bills
  • Utility bills
  • Back taxes at least 3 years old
  • Certain lawsuits and judgments
  • Reaffirm or Redeem Secured Debts: If you have a mortgage, a car loan, or some other type of secured debt, filing for Chapter 7 in Lake Elsinore CA allows you to choose whether or not you want to discharge these debts in the bankruptcy. If you can afford the payments, you can reaffirm the debt and keep the property. If you cannot afford the payments, you can give up or redeem the property and discharge the debts.
  • Keep Your Exempt Property: Although Chapter 7 is sometimes called “Liquidation Bankruptcy,” this doesn’t mean you will have to give up all of your property. California has two different sets of exemptions describing the type and value of property you can keep. We can go over the details with you and make sure you choose the most advantageous set of exemptions. This could allow you to keep:
  • Your home
  • Vehicles
  • Home furnishings
  • Clothing and jewelry
  • Social security benefits
  • 401ks and IRAs
  • Pensions and other qualified retirement plans
  • Tools of the trade for your business
  • Alimony and child support
