YOU CAN USE BANKRUPTCY TO WIPE YOUR SLATE CLEAN.

HOW THE CHAPTER 7 BANKRUPTCY PROCESS WORKS

FIND OUT IF YOU QUALIFY
In order to be eligible for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you have to pass what is called a "means test." This will calculate your income and expenses to determine if you are able to eventually pay off your debt over time or if you need a Chapter 7 filing to help.

FILE THE BANKRUPTCY PAPERWORK
With our help, you will submit the required forms. Once you have filed, you will be free from creditors contacting you for payment. A trustee will be assigned to your case, and the trustee will handle the process of selling your available property.

MEETING OF CREDITORS & DISCHARGE
You will be required to attend the creditors' meeting, and while creditors are invited, they rarely attend. After you have finished the meeting and provided the information the trustee needs, your case will move on until your unsecured debt is discharged.
