Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Southern Indiana and Kentucky Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Lawyers

If you or your business is facing crushing debt, bankruptcy may be the best solution for your financial problems.

The Bankruptcy Code contains a number of “chapters,” which are specific to the type of bankruptcy being filed.  Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code concerns individuals and companies who wish to eliminate their debts by liquidating their assets and using the proceeds to pay creditors.  In a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, most debts (such as credit card debt) are discharged; however, there are certain types of debts (such as taxes) that are not discharged.
