have it done Full Service for you.

Filing Personal Bankruptcy
The term personal bankruptcy denotes a consumer bankruptcy, whether chapter 7
bankruptcy or chapter 13 bankruptcy where the entity filing is a natural person
or married couple as opposed to a company or corporation. It is also defined to
apply to chapter 7 and chapter 13 but no to chapter 13.
There are five types of bankruptcy, Chapter 7, 9, 11, 12 and 13. Chapter 7, also
called liquidation is the most common type of personal bankruptcy that
individuals file. This personal bankruptcy type is extremely popular because it
provides for the absolute and complete elimination of most types of debt,
thereby giving the debtor a true fresh start. The goal of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy
is to obtain a court order discharging one's debts. Chapter 13 is the second
most popular type of personal bankruptcy and it involves paying back your
creditors under a court approved repayment plan. Chapter 11 bankruptcy is
specially suited for businesses corporations seeking to reorganize their debts
while continuing to operate. Chances are that you will be filing a personal
Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, since most individuals file under either
Chapter 7 or Chapter 13. Unless you are behind on your mortgage, Chapter 7
bankruptcy is preferred over Chapter 13.
Personal Bankruptcy - Chapter 7
Chapter 7 bankruptcy also known as liquidation in the personal bankruptcy code
and often referred to as straight bankruptcy or Personal Bankruptcy, is the most
common type of personal bankruptcy. When people generically refer to bankruptcy
or say they are declaring personal bankruptcy, they are most likely referring to
Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Most law resources will begin a description of Chapter 7
by saying that the aim of the Chapter is to liquidate all non-exempt assets for
the benefit of the creditors. While that is partially accurate, it misses a
fundamental underpinning of personal bankruptcy law which is that the
fundamental purpose of Chapter 7 consumer bankruptcy is to protect insolvent
debtors form creditors. Anyone can file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy and that includes
businesses, companies and corporations.
We can complete your personal bankruptcy in
one day or in just a few hours.
And we back it with a
200% money-back guarantee.
The goal of Chapter 7 bankruptcy is to protect you the debtor from your
creditors. If you are overburdened by debt, Chapter 7 bankruptcy is your friend,
not your enemy.
Personal bankruptcies can eliminate just about all types including the
following:
- Personal judgments from $1 to millions of dollars.
- All collection accounts.
- Hospital bills.
- Doctor bills.
- All major credit cards debts regardless of amounts.
- Store cards and all other charge card debts.
- Pending lawsuits.
- Deficiency judgments on auto repossessions.
- Deficiency judgments on mortgage foreclosure.
- Automobile accident insurance claims against you.
- Personal loans.
- Signature loans.
- Current unpaid rents.
- Past rents.
- Lawyer fees.
- Personal Income taxes.
- Qualifying student loans.
- Evictions.
- Auto loans.
- Auto lease debts.
- Collateral loans.
- Personal wage garnishments.
- Phone bills.
- Cable bills.
- Utility bills of all types, past and present.
- Gambling debts.
- Secured debts.
- Unsecured debts.
When a person files a personal Chapter 7 bankruptcy, their goal is to wipe out
most if not all of their debts. You file under Chapter 7 if your personal debts
are largely unsecured or if you want to wipe out most of your debts and never
repay them again. If your debts are mostly loans or credit cards and judgments,
you would most likely want to file Chapter 7. Imagine that for six months or
more you are suffering terribly under the heavy burden of debt and all of a
sudden, all that load gets lifted off you and you are a free person. One person
likened it to being declared not guilty after a long trial without bail. That is
what debtors report experiencing when they file Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

Obviously, not everyone qualifies to file personal bankruptcy and if your
qualify, there are limits on what assets you can keep and still discharge your
debt. Imagine for a moment that you are a small time contractor and that you
have just completed a remodeling job for a home owner. You have just been
informed that the homeowner has filed personal bankruptcy and that you are not
going to get any money for your work. You would certainly consider it unfair if
the court allowed the homeowner to keep $120,000 in his bank account and a
$58,000 Mercedes that was paid for while wiping out the $1,700 that you were
owed. This fictional scenario obviates the need for bankruptcy laws governing
what amount of personal property a person can keep after filing bankruptcy. Any
amounts above the limits should be converted to cash and paid to the creditors.
That is what exemption laws are about. Personal bankruptcy exemption laws
specify limits for most categories of assets that you can keep after filing
personal bankruptcy and it is the job of the trustee to liquidate any amounts
above those limits for the benefit of the creditors.
Laws dealing with declaring personal bankruptcy can be found in Chapter 7 of the
bankruptcy code (11USC). This chapter is divided into four subchapters.
Subchapter 1 deals with the duties of the trustee as applied to a filing under
Chapter 7, Subsection II deals with collection, liquidation and distribution of
the bankrupt estate, Subchapter III deals with stockbroker liquidation and
Subchapter IV deals with commodity broker liquidation.
Subchapter II (Section 721 through 728) is of particular importance to debtors
because it deals with your right to operate a business while in bankruptcy,
redemption of property, rights of partnerships, treatment of certain liens,
disposition of property, the discharge of debts and certain tax provisions.
Personal Chapter 13
Chapter 13 is the second most popular type of bankruptcy. There are certain debt
situations where a Chapter 7 personal bankruptcy is not in your best interest.
In those situations, you want some breathing room to catch up with your
payments. Chapter 13 personal bankruptcy is suited for those situations where
you are best off paying off your debts but you need more time than your
creditors will allow. Most people who file under Chapter 13 do so because they
have fallen behind on their mortgage payments and are facing the possibility of
foreclosure. In such situations, bankruptcy law allows debtors up to three years
to pay up the arrearage while maintaining their regular payments. Contrary to
popular belief, Chapter 7 personal bankruptcy is better in the long run for your
credit since you can start re-building it after the discharge rather than
waiting three years as is the case with Chapter 13.
You can either hire an attorney and pay lots of money to file your bankruptcy
or you can file your bankruptcy online. Filing
online
personal bankruptcy does not mean that you file it from your browser. It means
that you can have us prepare all the personal bankruptcy forms from the convenience of
your web browser.
We call it
online
personal bankruptcy because you submit your personal bankruptcy information online and
you receive back your completed personal bankruptcy forms online. But it does
not stop there. Our personal bankruptcy is prepared full-service, not by
personal bankruptcy software or by bankruptcy kits.
The biggest problem with filing
personal bankruptcy is having all those forms prepared with all the complicated
personal bankruptcy laws to consider. If you were to try to
file your
personal bankruptcy using
do-it-yourself bankruptcy forms, you would be stopped by your lack of
experience, and even if you have done this before, under the new bankruptcy
laws, discharging your debts has become so much more complicated. Add to that
the fact that the
personal bankruptcy forms have almost doubled in size.
Also, chapter 7 bankruptcy law now requires you to use data from several government
data bases in order to show that you even qualify. This is referred to as the
bankruptcy
means test. When filing personal bankruptcy with our services, you do not need
to worry about all the
personal bankruptcy forms or all the
bankruptcy laws required to discharge your debts. You need to have us
take your consumer bankruptcy information and prepare all the bankruptcy forms so that all you
need to do is sign your name and file them.
When filing personal bankruptcy online, you need list your debts and they may include credit
cards, mortgages, medical bills, and a lot more. In short the federal bankruptcy court
wants to have a clear picture of your financial situation. If you have never
filed personal bankruptcy before, how are you going to know what to do? When answering
the questions on the official bankruptcy forms how do you know if a specific answer will
help or hurt? That is where we come in.
Preparing your personal bankruptcy using
bankruptcy software, including the so
called "online bankruptcy software", is just plain uninformed when compared to
having it done Full-Service for you by an expert.
With the added complexity of the new
bankruptcy law, you cannot afford to chance it by using paper
bankruptcy forms
or even personal bankruptcy software. First, if you have never filed personal bankruptcy before, it could take you weeks
to get the paperwork together, but more importantly, if you mess it up
seriously, the bankruptcy court could order you to re-file in six months and by then you
would be filing under the new laws.
You avoid the hassle and the waste of time when
filing personal bankruptcy by having us prepare your
professional quality chapter 7 personal bankruptcy today. When you
file personal bankruptcy with us, there is no chance of its
being kicked out or of your being asked to file again in six months. Our work is
full service, not do it yourself.

do-it-yourself bankruptcy software
downloads or even an personal bankruptcy software system, but times have changed and these
are not the good old days.

will have to convince you that you cannot do it yourself with forms or software
kits. It can only be done by a full service company or by an attorney.
