Bankruptcy Lawyer in Richmond Heights MO

What benefits can i expect when i file for bankruptcy?

1. The main benefit is the “fresh start / clean slate” you’ll receive upon filing your petition. This is the mechanism by which you’ll be able to rebuild your credit rating (in a very short period of time).
2. And if you are currently trying to avoid all of your creditors (because they are calling you off the hook, and sending you a string of threatening letters), all of this will come to an end once your case is filed.
3. But if you are also dealing with things like a wage garnishment, bank levy, or pending lawsuit, this will all stop too!!!

Are there certain debts that would be included in my bankruptcy?

1. Credit cards and medical bills
2. Payday loans, signature loans, and personal loans
3. Old utility bills, overdrawn bank accounts, gym memberships
4. Deficiencies from things like car repo’s, home foreclosures, and broken rental agreements
5. Etc, etc, etc

1. A Ch7 will last about five months (from start to finish); a Ch13 will run between three and five years in length
2. A Ch7 is a simple discharge of unsecured debt; a Ch13 is a repayment plan
3. In a Ch7, you could potentially lose an asset that has a lot of value; in a Ch13, you don’t have to worry about losing anything (but it could affect your monthly plan payment)
