Chapter 7 for Business Owners and Consumers
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a liquidation proceeding that allows individual debtors to discharge most forms of debt, credit card debt, medical bills, professional malpractice, guaranty obligations, certain tax debts and most unsecured debts.
Through appropriate pre-bankruptcy planning, exemptions, debt reaffirmation agreements and other strategies, many debtors who file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy are able to protect all or a significant share of their property. When Chapter 7 bankruptcy would lead to a significant loss of property, other debt relief measures such as Chapter 13 bankruptcy or various non-bankruptcy alternatives may be available to provide necessary debt relief.
