Here are some of the benefits of Bankruptcy.

If the Debt is Dischargeable, then Chapter 7 and 13 Bankruptcy can:

Stop creditor’s lawsuit and harassment.  Some example of dischargeable debts are credit cards, medical bills, deficiency from car repossession, unsecured personal loans, some tax debt depending on whether you file for Chapter 7 or 13 Bankruptcy.  Call for more information.

Stop creditor’s harassment

Stop wage garnishment (except priority debts, which are nondischargeable, like child support and alimony and nondischargeable debts)

Stop bank levy

Remove Judicial Lien from your House or Real Estate (if you meet the requirements)

You can do more with a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy:

Stop foreclosure by paying your mortgage arrears plus ongoing mortgage payments in monthly payment plan up to 60 months.

Stop IRS debt tax levy by paying priority tax debt in a monthly payment plan up to 60 months.  You may be able to eliminate some of your tax debt.

Stop car repossession by paying the balance in a monthly payment plan up to 60 months.  You might be able to reduce the interest rates or the principal balance of the car loan or both.  Usually, Chapter 13 Bankruptcy will reduce your monthly car payment.

Keep your business operating during Bankruptcy without fear of the Bankruptcy Trustee liquidating or taking control of your business

Keep all your assets that would otherwise be liquidated in Chapter 7 Bankruptcy while restructuring your debt.  If you are worried that the bankruptcy trustee might confiscate your assets because you have too much equity in your house or too much assets in general, you might want to consider Chapter 13 Bankruptcy.

Restructure your debt when you do not qualify for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Discharge.  You should consider Chapter 13 Bankruptcy if you filed a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy within the last 8 years and do not yet qualify for another Chapter 7 Bankruptcy but need bankruptcy protection.  Another reason is that your income is too high for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy.

More debts are dischargeable in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy than Chapter 7 Bankruptcy.

Common Questions asked by Residences and Business Owners of Fairfield, Solano County, California:

1.  Do both spouses have to file for bankruptcy together?

No, both spouses do not have to file for bankruptcy.  One spouse can file alone but it might be beneficial for both spouses to file together.  Call for more information.

2.  Will I be able to keep my home if I file for bankruptcy?

It depends on how much equity you have in the house and which California exemptions is applicable to your case.  If you have equity in your house that are nonexempt after taking into account the cost of sales, you risk losing your house if you file for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, which is the bankruptcy that liquidates nonexempt assets or assets that are not protected by the California exemption to repay your debts.  The bankruptcy code provides for protection for so much assets in consideration of your creditors.  Here is another reason why bankruptcy is not a do-it-yourself project and you should call an experienced Bankruptcy Attorney.

3.  Will I be able to keep operating my business when I file for bankruptcy?

If you own a business, you should be careful when considering which bankruptcy chapter you should file.  If it is a small business will very little assets and the value of the business is fully covered by the California exemption as well as all your other assets, you might be able to file a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy without the Chapter 7 Trustee liquidating your business or business assets.  However, most of my sole proprietor clients who own a business that generate significant income tend to fall under Chapter 13 Bankruptcy.  Generally, they have significant business assets or their business can be sold for more than what the California exemption can protect.  Keep in mind, that only sole proprietor can file for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy and not business entities like corporation, limited liability company, partnership.  However, business entities can file for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy but they cannot use the exemptions.  Business entities that file for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy usually do so to liquidate their assets to pay their creditors and closed their doors.  Business entities that want to reorganized usually file for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy to keep their assets and continue operation.  This office does not represent debtors in Chapter 11 proceeding.
