Whether or not bankruptcy is right for you depends on your situation. Everyone's financial picture is different.
Does non-exempt property matter in a Chapter 13 case?
You know that non-exempt property matters a lot in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy case. After all, that is a liquidation case, so that property may be sold off to pay the debt. Exempt property is what you get to keep.
Addiction, fear, appearances and debt
No one wants to be in debt or sets out to declare bankruptcy. But it still happens.
Can you use Chapter 13 if you're self-employed?
You work for yourself, and you have for five years. You have a stable income, but you overestimated how much debt you could afford. You're thinking of using Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
The bankruptcy stigma and social pressure
Many people have strong opinions about bankruptcy and it does, however unfairly, come with a negative stigma.
