Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

- Chapter 7: Often called ”liquidation” bankruptcy, this option allows eligible clients to discharge unsecured debts like credit cards and medical bills, often while keeping their home and car.
- Chapter 13: Known as ”reorganization,” this allows individuals to consolidate their debts into an affordable monthly payment plan, stopping foreclosure and repossession.
Richard Strunks personally evaluates each case to determine the best path forward. If you need to hire a bankruptcy attorney who will explain your options in plain English and fight to protect your assets, the Bankruptcy Clinic is here to help.
