Filing for Chapter 7 in Calabasas
Many people will gain the greatest relief from filing for Chapter 7, the most common form of bankruptcy. This is the type of bankruptcy in which you have the ability to discharge unsecured consumer debt, including:
There are some type of older tax debt that could be open to discharge, but this will have to be reviewed on an individual basis. Some people are suffering the consequences of huge student loans. There are only a few people that will qualify to have student loans discharged, those that will suffer undue hardship. Although you may believe that you are suffering hardship, how the bankruptcy court will view your situation could be far different. We should look over your financial situation to advise you about whether this could be possible in your case.
If you have recently been divorced and suffered extreme financial trouble, had an unexpected medical emergency and now owe huge bills, or you just got behind due to some other unforeseen circumstances, we would like to help you get it under control. If you don’t qualify for Chapter 7, Chapter 13 could provide you the relief that you so badly need.
Business Bankruptcy: Chapter 11
Business owners have an incredible opportunity to avoid closing the business when times get tough. Filing for Chapter 11 gives you the opportunity to reorganize the activity, and halts your creditors from proceeding with lawsuits. You will be required to submit a payment plan to the court, and we are very familiar with this process, and ready to help you fully understand how Chapter 11 works, and to answer all of your questions about the impact upon your finances and your company.
