Get Your FREE Bankrupty EvaluationFiling Chapter 7
As the most common form of personal bankruptcy, Chapter 7 involves the liquidation of your non-exempt assets, which are then distributed to your creditors, in exchange for a discharge of your debts. Chapter 7 is also referred to as ‘liquidation’ and represents a “fresh start” for individuals. It sounds a lot worse than it really is. Most people do not lose any property in a bankruptcy. In addition, many of our clients are concerned about their future credit rating. Stop worrying. Although Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for ten years, the negative impact on your credit score diminishes considerably after one and a half to two years. I speak from experience because I have been through bankruptcy and I will help guide you in determining your options and providing bankruptcy advice and information during a FREE consultation in Orlando or Kissimmee.
Establishing eligibility
Not everybody can file for Chapter 7 but most qualify. In 2005, Congress passed the Bankruptcy Prevention Abuse and Consumer Protection Act (BAPCPA), which introduced a “means test” to establish eligibility. Under the means test, an applicant must demonstrate an average income below the state’s median income in order to qualify for Chapter 7. Many clients come to us and think they cannot file a Chapter 7 because they make too much money. They are then pleasantly surprised when we are able to qualify them for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Let us handle everything. In our office you are not given a large “packet” to fill out. Rest assured, we do all the work. We can help you determine what is the best course of action. Those who do not qualify for Chapter 7 can pursue a Chapter 13 bankruptcy instead. I am looking forward to helping you and your family restart your life.

“I was very hesitant to go through the procedure of bankruptcy, especially at this late age of my life of the close to retirement years. Going through difficult personal health and family events made this very hard, yet every person I came in contact at the Law offices of Attorney Walter Benenati made me feel at ease. They were always quick to answer any questions. Even one time I was shocked I emailed the office and not even a couple of minutes later the attorney called to answer my question. My 17 year old son, was next to me and he was “mom did that just happen”? Every step of the way they were with me. They always informed me of any changes etc. So appreciated communication and help from Olga, Maria, Zumary, Stephanie, Jennifer and Chris. I am extremely grateful to Denisse B. & Attorney Claribel Acosta for helping me so at ease with the transitions and process of it all till the end. These girls rock!!! Great communication, Great Service, forever grateful for the blessing of the Benenati Law Office for this Season of my Life. Trust me , Attorney Walter Benenati was the right choice for me and it will be for you too.”
