By contacting a trained attorney to guide you through the procedure, you can see just how easy the process can be.

Common Misconceptions

Once you have decided to declare bankruptcy, often the best choice is to try and qualify for Chapter 7 debt relief. There are a number of common misunderstandings about filing for bankruptcy, many of which have to do with this kind of filing. First and foremost, remember that filing for bankruptcy is not the end of the world! Millions of people just like you learn every year that there is life and a future after declaring financial insolvency. Secondly, your creditors will not be allowed to harass you or contact you once the bankruptcy process has started. Once you have begun, the courts will issue a stay preventing your creditors from calling you.

The most common misconception about Chapter 7, and one of the main reasons people are often frightened of filing for bankruptcy, is that all your property and assets will be seized. This is simply not the case! While Chapter 7 is often referred to as "asset liquidation", many if not all of your possessions will be exempt from repossession by court order. Your home, clothing, tools you need for work, household goods, and furniture are all almost always exempt from being taken away.
