Bankruptcy Answers

To enter into bankruptcy, you must be insolvent, meaning that you owe over $1,000, and that you are unable to make your payments when they are due.

If you have no assets, then Chapter 7 bankruptcy or liquidation, is probably for you, and you can receive a discharge in a few months. Chapter 7 bankruptcy, or liquidation, is very common. A Chapter 7 bankruptcy can eliminate unsecured debt like credit cards, medical bills, old utility bills, and unsecured personal loans, and can generally be completed within just a few months. In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy case, the trustee can sell non-exempt assets to pay creditors, but most people who file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy don’t have any non-exempt assets, and so are able to keep their property while eliminating unsecured debts.
