What You Should Know About Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a way for individuals to legally get rid of a large portion of their debt. The attorneys at Bankruptcy Advocates work with individuals and small businesses to secure relief under Chapter 7 bankruptcy, and eliminate most of their debt in Benton, West Frankfort and throughout Southern Illinois.

There are few things as valuable as peace of mind when it comes to one's financial situation. Here at Bankruptcy Advocates, we have more than 40 years of combined legal experience in helping individuals regain control of their money. When it comes to medical bills, credit card debt, utility bills and other unsecured debt, we can guide you through what is a viable and often ideal option.

How You Can Benefit From Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Chapter 7 bankruptcy offers several benefits. First, you can put an end to the harassing and constant calls from creditors, and even put a halt to actions like wage garnishments. Chapter 7 cases can also stop repossession proceedings and temporarily stop a foreclosure. Going further, you can retain a hold on your retirement accounts.

You can also avoid the false myth that bankruptcy will take everything from you. While Chapter 7 bankruptcy will require you to sell nonessential assets like a second home or heirlooms, you can still keep what you need to survive. Once your unsecured debt is discharged, you can get started on rebuilding your credit, and enjoy access to things such as loans and lines of credit within just a few years.
