Bankruptcy in Seattle, Washington
Bankruptcy provides relief for individuals and families who find themselves swimming amidst mountains of debt and unpaid bills. It is difficult to survive under so much stress and it is no way to go through life. There are two types of Bankruptcy that you can consider in filing for bankruptcy: Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. A Seattle bankruptcy attorney can assist you in going through both types of bankruptcy to determine which one is better for your unique situation. Chapter 7 Bankruptcy is often used if you have debt stemming from unpaid credit cards, medical bills, utility bills, and personal loans. However, your eligibility for Chapter 7 bankruptcy is largely determined by your income and assets. Not everyone who wants to file for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy is able to do so. A Means test will help discover which option is right for you. Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, on the other hand, provides a welcome shelter for you to get your finances back in order by imposing an automatic stay against all collections. Debts are then reorganized and may be reduced as a bankruptcy court calculates a 3-5 year repayment plan. Chapter 13 is often misunderstood as a plan for repaying all your debt. In reality most Chapter 13 filers end up paying dimes on the dollar to their unsecured creditors and recognize enormous savings when it comes to dealing with mortgages, auto loans and tax debts. Many of our Clients were surprised at the realization that filing for Chapter 13 can often deliver greater savings to them than filing for Chapter 7.
