Chapter 7 Bankruptcy for a Clean Financial Start
For many hardworking families, Chapter 7 bankruptcy represents the most effective path to debt relief. Often referred to as liquidation bankruptcy, this legal process allows eligible individuals to completely discharge unsecured debts, including credit card balances, medical bills, personal loans, and certain utility bills. Attorneys Keith Borders and Ryan Gerace carefully review your financial profile to determine if you pass the Ohio means test. By filing under Chapter 7, you can immediately trigger the automatic stay, which legally forces creditors to halt all collection lawsuits, wage garnishments, and harassing phone calls. When you are looking to hire a lawyer to wipe the slate clean, their firm provides the strategic oversight you need.
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy and Foreclosure Prevention
If you own a home and are facing foreclosure, Chapter 13 bankruptcy offers a powerful mechanism to save your property. Chapter 13 functions as a reorganization plan, enabling individuals with a steady income to consolidate their debts into a manageable, three-to-five-year repayment schedule. This process allows you to catch up on missed mortgage payments over time while protecting your home, vehicles, and other non-exempt assets from liquidation. If you urgently need a lawyer to stop a foreclosure sale or halt a vehicle repossession, Borders and Gerace, LLC provides immediate, calculated legal intervention to protect your primary assets.
