Should I get an attorney?
Bankruptcy in Cleveland means filing a petition with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Ohio, as bankruptcy is governed by federal law. You will then have to determine whether to file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. In both cases, a trustee will be appointed to manage your case.
Both types of bankruptcy have the same end result of eliminating debt, but the process for eliminating debt will be different. An attorney can help inform you about this decision, and can help you decide which type of bankruptcy is best for you.
You are not required to use an attorney to file bankruptcy. However, if your bankruptcy is not handled properly you can miss opportunities to eliminate certain debts or your case could be dismissed completely. A skilled Cleveland attorney can use their experience and expertise to make the process as smooth as possible.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Cleveland
Chapter 7 is often termed “liquidation bankruptcy” because all of the debtor’s assets are liquidated or sold in order to satisfy the debt owed to creditors.
This type of bankruptcy is often seen as quick and easy because it can be completed within a few months. If you don’t have a lot of major assets, Chapter 7 may be the best way for you to eliminate your debt quickly.
If you are current on your home mortgage payment and/or car payment, you can still file Chapter 7 and in many cases keep the property as long as you are within certain guidelines.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Cleveland
Chapter 13 is also known as “reorganization bankruptcy”. It allows you to formulate a court-approved repayment plan that will last from approximately three to five years. This type of bankruptcy does take longer, but it allows you to keep your home, car, and other property when you are behind on the payments.
A key factor to consider with Chapter 13 bankruptcy is that your repayment plan will be based in part on your current income and expenses. If your income changes in any way, your repayment plan may need to be adjusted. As such, working with an attorney will help to ensure you are making decisions that are in your best financial interests.
Filing bankruptcy in Cleveland
Bankruptcy has enabled Cleveland citizens to eliminate debt that has been following them for many years, if not decades. It is understandable that bankruptcy is often feared, and seen as a last resort for eliminating debt.
However, bankruptcy is not something to be feared, but rather something to be taken into consideration if you are unable to manage your current debt. Far from being your last resort, it can eliminate your debt in the most feasible way possible, while allowing you to rebuild your financial situation.
Our Cleveland attorneys provide our clients with the tools and resources to complete the bankruptcy process as efficiently as possible.
