Advising You on Proactive Post-Bankruptcy Choices
Many consumers do not see a light at the end of the tunnel when they file for bankruptcy. While they may be able to secure the debt relief they need, post-bankruptcy possibilities fill them with dread. They wonder if they will ever be able to qualify for a car loan or mortgage again. They wonder what life will be like after bankruptcy.
The goal of attorney Timothy J. Helbing, the founder of the Helbing Law Office, LLC, is to educate Wisconsin residents on the facts of bankruptcy and what truly happens after debt is charged in a Chapter 7 or reorganized and paid off in a Chapter 13.
After enduring the process of bankruptcy and the years of stress leading up to it, no one intentionally embarks on that journey again. Taking simple, yet careful steps following the discharge of your debts can make your life easier and prevent future financial problems. Contact our Appleton office at 866-654-1317.
Take Back Control of Your Finances
A bankruptcy will remain on your credit report for ten years. However, that does not prevent you from securing credit in the near future. Filing bankruptcy gives you control over your debts. When the discharge occurs, you will have more control over your life, not to mention your credit score.
Smart financial decisions should dictate your life after bankruptcy. In addition, you can generally keep your home and car and make regular payments, increasing your credit rating. You can still enjoy the security of a 401(k) and other retirement accounts untouched by creditors.
Simply put, there is life after bankruptcy.
