Difficult Decisions

Wall Street had its best July in 20 years, and a surprising drop in the number of unemployment benefit applications indicate our economy is improving. Unfortunately, for many people, an improving economy is coming a little too late and too slow. They need help now because many of them are considering
bankruptcy.

Hard Choices

A lot of people think filing bankruptcy is the “easy” way out of their financial trouble. I’ve known people who filed bankruptcy. There’s nothing easy about it. You’re faced with difficult financial decisions that affect you emotionally and can affect your life for years to come.

Many assess their situation and decide not to file for financial protection because they don’t personally know any of the bankruptcy lawyers in their area. How can they trust a stranger when there are scammers out there just waiting to take advantage of your trouble?

Can’t Eliminate All

Some discover that bankruptcy doesn’t wipe away all debts. Yes, your unsecured debts like consumer credit debt can disappear, but property secured debts aren’t covered and neither are government debts like student loans unless you’re permanently disabled. You also can’t eliminate child support judgments or other court judgments like negligence injury fines and awards. These kinds of debts survive bankruptcy.

Work Through It

Sometimes, you may discover that it’s better to work your way out of the situation when filing bankruptcy won’t clear all your debts. That way, you won’t have a bankruptcy affecting your credit history for years to come.
