Will I Lose Everything If I File for Chapter 7?
Filing for bankruptcy may not be as disastrous as you think it could be. Chapter 7 is also known as “liquidation bankruptcy,” because it requires a trustee to collect and liquidate your assets to pay off your creditor. This often gives people the incorrect impression that they will lose absolutely everything, even the shirts off their backs.
Liquidation can include real estate, vehicles, and personal property, but they are many different exemptions you can claim. These exemptions can protect many different kinds of individual items (clothing, furniture, housewares, etc.) and even some of the equity you own in your home and car.
With the assistance of a bankruptcy attorney, you can take advantage of the Chapter 7 exemptions to protect what’s essential to maintaining your dignity and way of life.
Will Bankruptcy Destroy My Credit Forever?
While it’s true that a bankruptcy can significantly decrease your credit score, it can be rebuilt over time once better credit habits are established and maintained. It may be difficult to find new lines of credit immediately after bankruptcy, but it can be repaired over time with sensible spending and careful financial management.
Bankruptcy also won’t appear on your credit report forever. In most cases, it only shows up for 7-10 years after the bankruptcy case is closed.
