Bankruptcy Lawyer In Laurence Harbor, NJ

Financial burdens are common in many families today because they owe too much money to credit cards and banks. Also, the pandemic hit the U.S., and many lost jobs or had to close their business. If you're one of these unfortunates, filing bankruptcy may help you and your family or business start with a clean slate.

Depending on your circumstances, bankruptcy may be able to help with the following:

  • Bankruptcy may end the legal need for you to have to pay creditors.
  • If you file for bankruptcy, you can stop lawsuits.
  • Filing bankruptcy can stop the garnishment of your wages.
  • Bankruptcy stops harassment at both work and home.

Some people believe filing bankruptcy will ruin their credit. In reality, filing for bankruptcy will give you a fresh start so you can start rebuilding your financial situation right away. Moreover, if you do so carefully this time, you could even reestablish yourself as an ideal candidate for loan approval.

After all, creditors don't know whether you're working off your debt or not; they only see the balance. Ironically, bankruptcy clients receive credit card offers from lenders after filing for bankruptcy!

Bankruptcy Law Attorney In Laurence Harbor, NJ

Congress created bankruptcy law to help people struggling to pay their bills get back on their feet again. But unfortunately, the law is not working for many of those who need it most. The number of Americans filing for bankruptcy has risen steadily since the Great Recession began in 2007.

When considering declaring bankruptcy, it's necessary to know the different types. An experienced bankruptcy lawyer, like Paul, will tell you whether you must file for Chapter 7, Chapter 11, or Chapter 13 bankruptcy.

In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you'll sell assets and use those funds to repay your creditors. You won't lose any property during the process, but you might have to sell some items to raise cash. This type of bankruptcy is quick and easy. However, if you don't have enough money to pay off your debts, you may be forced into a Chapter 13 bankruptcy instead.

A Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing occurs when no asset can be sold to pay off creditors. Suppose the court decides that the debtor has no reasonable chance of successfully reorganized under Chapter 11. In that case, it may choose to dismiss the bankruptcy case. Filing Chapter 11 can help to stop the repossession of your property.

Filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy is done when you have considerable debt and can't pay it off. Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to repay your creditors over three years at a lower rate than what you normally pay. As your bankruptcy law attorney, Paul will submit a proposed payment plan within 15 days of filing for bankruptcy. This payment plan is modifiable as often as every 30 days.
