Our bankruptcy attorneys in Tallahassee specializes in personal bankruptcy matters for chapters 7 and 13 filings in Tallahassee and North Florida area.

If you’re in debt and struggling to keep up with repaying loans and credit card bills, Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy are the two most common programs you can use to reduce or eliminate your debt.

Chapter 7
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is known as liquidation bankruptcy. Most of your property is sold and used to pay off your debts. Chapter 7 bankruptcy is generally meant for people with limited incomes who do not have the ability to pay back all or some portion of their debts.
Chapter 13
Chapter 13 bankruptcy is referred to as a reorganization bankruptcy. Your property is not sold when you file for Chapter 13 protection, and if you successfully complete a court-mandated repayment plan, you may be able to keep your property.
Life After Bankruptcy
Filing bankruptcy can be financially, as well as emotionally challenging. However, it may be your second chance to take control of your financial situation when bills keep piling up and you don’t have the means to pay your creditors.
