Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

As the most common form of bankruptcy filing, Chapter 7 provides a relatively quick 3-6 month resolution. A majority of your debts will be wiped away, except for student loans, secured loans, child support, and any other exempt obligations. While the non-exempt property may have to be surrendered, you are able to keep exempt assets such as retirement accounts, public benefits, and maybe even your home. While there is no limit to the amount of debt that may be discharged under your Chapter 7 filing, if your income exceeds the median income for Florida, our team at Rodriguez Law, P.L. will decide if filing under Chapter 13 would better suit your situation.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy:A Fresh Start May Be Closer Than You Think

If you are overwhelmed by credit cards, medical bills, personal loans, lawsuits, garnishments, or collection calls, Chapter 7 bankruptcy may give you the fresh financial start you need. Chapter 7 is one of the most common and effective forms of bankruptcy because it can eliminate many unsecured debts and allow you to move forward without the constant pressure of creditors.

At Rodriguez Law, P.L., we do more than prepare paperwork. We analyze your financial situation, protect your rights, and help determine whether Chapter 7 is the right strategy for you. In many cases, Chapter 7 can be completed in a matter of months, giving you relief from debt faster than you may think.

You may also be able to keep important property, including your retirement accounts, personal belongings, vehicle, and even your home, depending on the exemptions available in your case. Every situation is different, which is why speaking with an attorney is so important before making a decision.

Do not let fear, shame, or creditor pressure stop you from learning your options. Bankruptcy is not the end. For many people, it is the beginning of financial recovery.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: Reorganize Your Debt and Protect Your Future

When debt becomes difficult to manage, Chapter 13 bankruptcy may provide a structured path forward. Chapter 13 allows individuals and married couples to reorganize their debts through a court-approved repayment plan, giving them time to catch up on past-due obligations while helping protect important property.

Unlike Chapter 7, Chapter 13 may allow you to keep property that could otherwise be at risk in a liquidation bankruptcy. This can include your home, vehicle, and other valuable assets, depending on your specific financial situation. One of the major benefits of Chapter 13 is that it may allow you to catch up on past-due mortgage, condo or homeowners' association payments over time instead of having to pay everything at once. Through a repayment plan that typically lasts 3 to 5 years, you may be able to manage secured debts, non-dischargeable debts, and other financial obligations in a more organized and affordable way.

Once a Chapter 13 case is filed, the automatic stay may stop collection calls, lawsuits, garnishments, repossessions, and other creditor actions. This protection can give you the breathing room needed to regain control and work toward a better financial future.

At Rodriguez Law, P.L., we help clients understand their options, protect their rights, and determine whether Chapter 13 is the right strategy for their situation.
