When should I file Chapter 7 Bankruptcy versus Chapter 13 Bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy, also known as a liquidation bankruptcy, is a legal option that can help you clear some or all of your debt. However, it may require you to sell or liquidate some of your property or cash. You may be able to clear your debts faster with Chapter 7 than with Chapter 13. Chapter 13 typically takes between three to five years to complete, Chapter 7 generally takes about 90 to 100 days from start to finish, which includes the time it takes to complete a credit counseling course before you can file.
However before filing either type of bankruptcy, your attorney will help you determine the type of debt you owe. Neither Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 lets you discharge the following:
Child support
Alimony
Certain taxes
Bankruptcy is a major legal decision with serious consequences. Individuals need to consider all their options before deciding to file for bankruptcy. Learn more about Chapter 7.
