Benefits of Filing Under Chapter 7

Beyond eliminating or minimizing your debt, Chapter 7 also allows you to:

• Save your home: Even if your home is already in foreclosure, you may be able to save your home up until the actual time of sale.
• Stop creditors: When you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay goes into effect that bars your creditors from harassing or even contacting you for collection purposes.
• Stop garnishments and levies: By filing for Chapter 7, you can stop wage garnishments and bank levies. In some instances, you may even get be able to recover some money that has already been garnished.

There are state and federal exemption that protect certain property in addition to real estate, such as clothes and furniture. We will protect your exempt property throughout the bankruptcy process.
