You're Not Alone—A Bankruptcy Lawyer Fights For You People generally
file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy to discharge credit card debts and other
unsecured debts. So what happens when one files for bankruptcy under
Chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code? After obtaining your credit
counseling certificate, you’ll need to provide your bankruptcy lawyer
with all information on your assets, income, expenses and debts. Your
bankruptcy lawyer will use this information to prepare your Chapter 7
bankruptcy petition, which will be filed in a local bankruptcy court.
Upon your bankruptcy filing, the court will appoint a bankruptcy
trustee who will enter an order for an automatic stay, which
essentially stops all collection actions against you during your
Chapter 7 bankruptcy case. Six weeks after filing, you’ll need to
attend a meeting of creditors and testify to the accuracy of the
information in your bankruptcy petition.
Generally, Chapter 7
bankruptcy cases are very quick. Many people receive their discharge
six months after filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
