Chapter 7 Allows You to Retain More of Your Assets Than You Might Think

Many people are scared of Chapter 7 bankruptcy because they think they will lose most of their possessions and assets. This is not always the case, however, and most people retain most or all of their assets. Some things you should know about Chapter 7:

Pension and retirement plans are usually protected from the bankruptcy process, so it is important that you do not liquidate these accounts to pay off your debts before filing for bankruptcy.
Many other assets are exempted from the bankruptcy process, so it is important to talk with an experienced bankruptcy lawyer before transferring or liquidating any assets.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy could give you the chance to eliminate credit card debt, medical debt and other forms of debt and obtain a fresh start for your financial future.
Through patient and responsible borrowing over a period of time, you will be able to rebuild your credit.
