What Happens During the Bankruptcy Process?

After your initial consultation, I will explain every step of the process before you decide on an option. We’ll determine whether you meet the requirements for Chapter 7 bankruptcy or if you need to go the Chapter 13 route. The De Leo Law Firm, LLC will register your case with the bankruptcy court, gather all the documents you need, and provide the assigned bankruptcy trustee with all the paperwork needed to move your case forward.

The Tools Of Bankruptcy

Bankruptcy has been my sole focus since I started practicing law in 1990, and depending on your situation, I can help you with:


Chapter 7 Bankruptcy — Businesses and individuals can use Chapter 7 bankruptcy to sell nonexempt assets, fully discharge certain debts and get a fresh start. As soon as you file, creditors have to stop calling.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy — Through Chapter 13, you can reorganize and consolidate debts into one manageable payment. This is often called “wage earner’s bankruptcy” because it is a good tool for people who have income and the ability to repay.

Chapter 11 Bankruptcy — Chapter 11 allows a business to restructure its debt, stay in business and make payments over time. It also allows for discharging certain debts, unlike Chapter 13. However, Chapter 11 is complicated and can be expensive, so if your business is a “DBA” or a sole proprietorship, Chapter 13 might be a better choice.


Note that student loans are not dischargeable; however, my firm can advise you about other options for student loan debt relief. Whatever your situation, I’ll explain your options and help you make the right choice so you can obtain the freedom from debt you need and deserve.
