Bankruptcy Basics

New York Bankruptcy Lawyer: Bankruptcy Basics

Bankruptcy is an opportunity to discharge certain debts. Obligations like credit card debts, medical debts and other unsecured debts may be reduced or eliminated through a Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

A Chapter 13 bankruptcy can provide critical relief through a debt repayment or debt restructuring plan. Typically, the repayment plan is a three-year or five-year plan.

The Importance Of Honest And Full Disclosure

When you meet with an attorney to discuss your legal needs, it is important to provide a full picture of your assets and debts. When filing for bankruptcy, you have an obligation to provide full and accurate information to the bankruptcy court.

People who fail to provide honest and fully forthcoming information to a bankruptcy court can face severe penalties. When representing a person or business in a consumer or commercial bankruptcy filing, we fully explain to clients the importance of honesty and candor throughout the bankruptcy process.
