About The Smith Law Firm, PLLC

Chapter 7 liquidation allows a debtor to discharge or liquidate their unsecured debts at the conclusion of the case. However, the term Chapter 7 bankruptcy is often misunderstood. As a result there are a lot of myths about what a Chapter 7 is or what is permitted in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceeding. Some of the common myths out there are you cannot keep your home or your car in a bankruptcy. This is generally not true. It cannot stop a foreclosure on your home; that is another myth which is not necessarily true. Or you cannot discharge certain types of medical debts. Again these are all myths that are generally not true. A Chapter 7 enables the debtor to relinquish or discharge all types of unsecured debt provided they meet the qualifications for that type of discharge.
