BANKRUPTCY OVERVIEW: DENVER COLORADO BANKRUPTCY

Filing for bankruptcy can be an effective way to get from under significant debt and obtain a financial fresh start. However, the details of your situation will play a role in determining whether filing for Chapter 7, Chapter 13 or some other type of bankruptcy may be preferable for you – or whether other debt relief options may be more beneficial.

If you are buried under crushing debt and are ready to find out whether bankruptcy may be right for you, don’t hesitate to contact the trusted Denver bankruptcy attorneys at Garcia & Gonzales, P.C. We are committed to helping our clients resolve their serious financial matters as favorably and efficiently as possible.

WHEN TO CONSIDER FILING FOR BANKRUPTCY IN COLORADO

Pursuing a Colorado bankruptcy may be a good move for you if you are struggling with a lot of debt and any one (or combination) of the following may apply to you:

  • You are not able to make all of the minimum payments on your current debts.

  • You have missed one or more monthly payments because you couldn’t afford it.

  • Your debt will be growing in the future, but your income will not.

  • You have little to no income due to, for instance, persisting unemployment.

These are not the only situations in which filing for bankruptcy may be a good option (nor may bankruptcy be the only or best option in these situations).

However, if you do find yourself facing these types of financial challenges with no foreseeable way out, it’s a good time to talk to one of our experienced Denver bankruptcy lawyers to find out whether a Colorado bankruptcy may be the right move for you.

COLORADO BANKRUPTCY: FILING FOR CHAPTER 7 VERSUS CHAPTER 13

When filing for bankruptcy is a preferable move, the next big decision will generally be whether to file for:

  • Chapter 7 bankruptcy – This can be a better option when people have significant unsecured debt, they have little to no income, they haven’t recently filed for bankruptcy, etc. With Chapter 7, however, people will have to pass a “means test,” which evaluates their income versus their debt (among other things), in order to qualify.

  • Chapter 13 bankruptcy – This can be a better option when people don’t qualify for Chapter 7 because they earn too much money, they’ve recently filed a Chapter 7 case, etc. Unlike Chapter 7, with Chapter 13, people will have to devise a debt repayment plan to be approved by the court.

BENEFITS OF COLORADO BANKRUPTCY

In general, just some of the benefits of filing for bankruptcy can include:

  • Court protections – Specifically, an automatic stay will take effect after a bankruptcy petition has been filed, and this can immediately stop repossessions, foreclosures, and wage garnishments.

  • Bankruptcy exemptions – These exemptions can allow people to keep some of their property and assets through bankruptcy (depending, of course, on the value of the property and assets). In some cases, bankruptcy exemptions can allow people to retain their homes, vehicles, etc.

  • An effective resolution to serious debt issues – A successful Colorado bankruptcy case can help people resolve their serious debt and start a new financial chapter in their lives.
