Cherry Hill, NJ Debt Lawyer Explains the Benefits of Chapter 7 Personal Bankruptcy

In many cases, the chapter of bankruptcy filed depends on which one a person qualifies for. There is no choice involved. For those who do qualify for both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13, I frequently recommend Chapter 7.

My name is Joel R. Spivack. With more than 30 years of bankruptcy experience on my side, I understand the importance of getting to know your unique situation and customizing my advice based on your needs. With that said, the strengths of Chapter 7 bankruptcy are clear in most cases.

The Strengths of Chapter 7 Bankruptcy over Chapter 13 for Camden and Burlington County NJ Residents

Chapter 7 bankruptcy cases usually take less than six months. You could be debt free in less than a year, with the exception of your mortgage, your car payment or other debts that survive bankruptcy. Chapter 13 bankruptcy requires the creation of a repayment plan that could last up to five years. Not only will you be required to repay a portion of your debts; if you do not complete the plan, you will still be left with all of your remaining debts.

While it is possible that you will have to give up property, most people who file Chapter 7 bankruptcy do not. You will certainly be able to keep most necessities, and foreclosure and repossession actions can be stopped in the process.
