Bankruptcy Lawyer in Town and Country MO

What are the main benefits to filing for bankruptcy?

1. First and foremost, the filing of a bankruptcy will give you the perfect opportunity to discharge of unsecured debt. Most notably, your credit score will bump up by about 100 points within the first year or so after filing.
2. It will also put an immediate end to all the creditor activity you are currently dealing with (no more phone calls, no more letters, no more demands for money)
3. Or if your creditors have received judgments against you, this activity will also come to a hard stop (no more wage garnishments, no more bank levies)

Can you give me a list of typical debts that will be included in my bankruptcy?

1. Credit cards and medical bills and payday loans
2. But also signature loans (especially the ones that originate online) and personal loans (like from you friends or family members)
3. If you’ve had a car repossessed (or a home foreclosed on, or if you have broken a rental agreement), the deficiency that will result (after the car is resold) will be taken care of
4. Old utility bills (like cable, water, gas, and electric), old cell phone bills, overdrawn bank accounts, old gym memberships (etc, etc, etc)

1. A Ch7 is a simple discharge of unsecured debt; a Ch13 is a repayment plan
2. A Ch7 will last about five months in length; a Ch13 will run between three and five years
3. The Bankruptcy Trustee in a Ch7 is on the lookout for assets that have a lot of value (because he/she might want to liquidate them); the Trustee in a Ch13 is trying to find a way to make your monthly plan payment higher
