Find out your options and the truth about filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

The recent bankruptcy reforms have changed the criteria for determining eligibility for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, which is sometimes referred to as a “liquidation bankruptcy” or “straight bankruptcy.” The laws still allow consumers and businesses in need of a “fresh start” to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If you have questions about whether you qualify to file for debt relief under Chapter 7 bankruptcy, call our Denver law firm to schedule an appointment with an experienced bankruptcy lawyer.

Why should I choose a Chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Unlike a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, a Chapter 7 bankruptcy requires no payment plan. In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you liquidate all non-exempt assets (if you have any), and use the proceeds to satisfy your unsecured and under-secured debts according to the bankruptcy code.

A Chapter 7 bankruptcy eliminates all your debts (except those you reaffirm, possibly your mortgage and car payments), and allows you a fresh start. The law recognizes people make mistakes and that unforeseen circumstances can cause undue hardship on people. People lose their jobs or are forced to take a reduction in pay, illness happens, and rising interests rates can cause people to become overextended.

By filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy you can stop foreclosure proceedings, repossessions, and debt collection efforts, including those annoying, and often harassing, phone calls.
