Addressing the Benefits of Filing for Bankruptcy
Bankruptcy is designed to provide consumers with a fresh start. Through Chapter 7 bankruptcy, individuals are able to discharge all of their unsecured debts. Individuals who qualify for Chapter 13 bankruptcy debt relief also gain a fresh start, after their debts are re-organized into a three- to five-year repayment plan. Filing for bankruptcy provides consumers with a clean slate and other benefits, including:
- Stops wage garnishments — As soon as your bankruptcy petition is filed with the court, a notice is sent out to all of your creditors to stop garnishing your wages.
- Stops bank executions — Once you file a bankruptcy petition, creditors will be prevented from taking money out of your bank accounts.
- Stops creditor harassment — When you file for bankruptcy, the law authorizes an automatic stay putting an end to all collective activity, including creditor harassment.
- Stop repossessions — Filing for bankruptcy may also put an end to your property being repossessed.
- Stop foreclosures proceedings — Once you file a bankruptcy petition, all bankruptcy proceedings are stopped.
