Chapter 7 is one of the most common forms of consumer bankruptcy. It involves selling nonessential assets—such as secondary real estate, vehicles, collectibles, and other valuables—to pay off debt, with the government discharging any remaining balance. This option works well for individuals who cannot afford monthly debt payments due to essential expenses like mortgage, rent, and household bills. It's also valuable for sole proprietors and other business entities looking to liquidate operations due to insurmountable debt.
-
Chapter 13 allows you to consolidate most or all of your debt into a manageable payment plan lasting three to five years. If you make every monthly payment, any remaining debt is discharged. This approach is ideal for individuals who want to regain financial stability without liquidating assets like homes, vehicles, or family heirlooms. We can also help you through the mortgage modification process to lower your monthly payments.

For businesses facing financial hardship, Chapter 11 bankruptcy offers a path to stability through corporate restructuring. We guide companies through the process, including negotiating with creditors, modifying contracts, and implementing organizational changes such as mergers, acquisitions, or sales. Small business owners may also qualify for Subchapter V bankruptcy, which allows you to keep your business running while paying off debts affordably.
