Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Chapter 7 Milwaukee Attorney

For those buried under medical bills, credit card bills, or experiencing wage garnishment, with little or no disposable income, Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a great tool to reclaim financial freedom. Chapter 7 discharges most types of debt while protecting personal property like a car or house. However, those with enough income to make payments on debt would not be eligible.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Chapter 13 | Milwaukee Bankruptcy

If you have disposable income but are unable to pay back your debt, Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be a good solution for you. Under Chapter 13, the debtor is put on a plan to repay debt over three to five years and can keep all their property. This means that debts like child support, which cannot be discharged through bankruptcy, can be repaid.

Debt Consolidation

Bankruptcy Lawyers in Milwaukee WI

Another good option, particularly for those who don’t qualify for Chapters 7 or 13 bankruptcy, is debt consolidation. When debt is consolidated, a loan is taken out to repay the existing debt, and payments are subsequently made on the loan. Attorney Michael Burr and associates can help you decide which option is best for you.

    For a long time, bankruptcy carried a negative social stigma. However, people from every income level, age bracket, demographic, and background have found that bankruptcy can be an extremely useful tool for eliminating debt and regaining control over their financial life. Whether you have experienced financial challenges resulting from a divorce, health issue, job loss, or something else, experienced Attorney Michael Burr and the experts of Burr Law Office are here to help you make the right decision to set you back on the path to financial success.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I discharge my tax debts by filing for bankruptcy?

    Yes, it is possible to eliminate tax debt through bankruptcy, as long as certain conditions are met. In cases when the debt may not be discharged, a Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing and subsequent repayment plan will make the debt more manageable. Here are the conditions that must be met for a discharge of tax debt:

    • A filing due date of at least 3 years old or more
    • A tax return filed at least 2 years previously
    • A tax assessment completed at least 240 days prior
    • No fraud committed on the tax return
    • No tax evasion committed
    • Debt cannot be discharged if from an unfiled return

    How will bankruptcy affect my credit?

    We often hear concerns that one’s bankruptcy will plummet after a bankruptcy filing. Don’t fear – you will still be eligible for credit to make purchases such as a home or car in the 10 years after you file. Be aware, though, that a bankruptcy filing will appear on your credit report for those 10 years. One thing that surprises people who file for bankruptcy is that they begin to receive offers from credit card companies once their debt is discharged. This is because a discharge of debt vastly improves one’s debt-to-income ratio and puts a person in a position to pay back future debts.

    Is it possible to file for bankruptcy multiple times?

    Yes, but there are some caveats. While you can file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy once every eight years, if you want to subsequently file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy within four years of filing for Chapter 7 and receiving a discharge, you will not be able to discharge your debts. You must wait more than four years after filing Chapter 7 to file Chapter 13 and receive a discharge. However, no matter when you file Chapter 13, you will still be eligible for protection from creditors.

    Will I be able to keep my job if I file for bankruptcy?

    No need to worry, as it is illegal for an employer to discriminate against their employees because they have filed for bankruptcy.

    Is there a required minimum amount of debt to file for bankruptcy?

    No, there are no limits or set amounts of debt required to file for bankruptcy.

    Will my credit be ruined after bankruptcy?

    It will not be ruined, but it will be affected. You will receive credit card offers and be eligible for credit to purchase a home or car, but it will take a while for you to rebuild your credit. But, don’t fear – Attorney Michael Burr can help you create a plan to build your credit back up after filing for bankruptcy.
