Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: Eliminate Your Unsecured Debts

A Chapter 7 bankruptcy is designed to help individuals and families wipe the slate clean by completely eliminating dischargeable, unsecured liabilities. This includes medical bills, credit card balances, personal loans, and certain old tax debts. Attorney Edwin L. Feld and his legal team guide clients through every critical phase of the process, including the mandatory income means test, to determine if they qualify for this powerful form of relief. One of the most immediate benefits of filing for bankruptcy is the automatic stay, which legally forces creditors, banks, and collection agencies to immediately cease all collection efforts, including phone calls, lawsuits, and wage garmishments. The firm works diligently to ensure that clients can maximize their property exemptions, allowing them to keep their home, vehicle, and essential personal belongings while freeing themselves from heavy financial burdens.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: Stop Foreclosures and Save Your Assets

If your income exceeds Chapter 7 limits, or if you are behind on your mortgage or car payments and want to prevent foreclosure or repossession, a Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be the ideal legal solution. Often referred to as a reorganization bankruptcy, Chapter 13 allows debtors to combine their outstanding debts into a manageable, court-approved repayment plan lasting between three and five years. The attorneys at Edwin L. Feld & Associates, LLC excel at constructing highly strategic repayment plans that fit within their clients' monthly budgets. This process allows homeowners to catch up on missed mortgage payments over time, strip away junior mortgages, and pay back only a fraction of what they owe to unsecured creditors, providing an effective shield against aggressive foreclosure actions.
