Chapter 7 vs. Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
You've probably heard about the different bankruptcy chapters, but what could they mean for you?
Bankruptcy Under Chapter 7
If you want to eliminate unsecured debt like credit cards, payday loans, some personal loans, utility and medical debt, filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy may be an option for you.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is usually a viable option for people with lots of unsecured debt and little income coming in. Talk to a bankruptcy lawyer to see if you qualify to file bankruptcy under Chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
Bankruptcy Under Chapter 13
If you're facing foreclosure or looking for an interest-free debt repayment plan, Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be the right choice for you.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy is typically an option for people who have steady income, but also have lots of unsecured debt and debt tied to property they don't want to lose (like a house). In many cases, Chapter 13 bankruptcy can stop foreclosure proceedings.

What Happens After Filing Personal Bankruptcy?
If you're thinking about filing bankruptcy, you're probably wondering how it can affect credit.
It's true that bankruptcy stays on a credit report for up to 10 years (may be less depending on which type of bankruptcy is filed), but once the slate is essentially "wiped clean" after a successful bankruptcy filing, people can instantly start rebuilding their credit.
In fact, many people even gain stronger credit scores after filing bankruptcy because their old debt is gone and they can start fresh.
