Chapter 7

Attorney Saleh has successfully assisted in thousands of bankruptcy cases. The majority of cases filed in the United States are Chapter 7 Bankruptcy cases. In most instances, the debtor is able to wipe out their unsecured debt without making any payments to their creditors. Chapter 7 is meant to provide the debtor with a fresh start by eliminating their unsecured debt, while allowing them to decide what secured debts they would like to keep. Chapter 7 Bankruptcy is commonly referred to as a liquidation, however, almost every case we have filed has been a “no asset case” meaning the debtor is allowed to keep all their assets. The typical chapter 7 process takes about four months to complete, and debtors often begin rebuilding their credit shortly after discharge.

Chapter 13

Another form of personal bankruptcy filing is Chapter 13. Unlike Chapter 7, which is a liquidation of assets, Chapter 13 is a reorganization bankruptcy. Under a Chapter 13 plan, the debtor agrees to pay a certain percentage of his debt back to his creditors. The plan must be approved by the Trustee and typically last 3 to 5 years depending on the Debtor’s income.  A Debtor may choose to file Chapter 13 for several reasons: Trying to save a secured asset (house, car) by catching up on arrears, having too high of an income, having too many assets, or having too much equity in property.
