One major reason to consider hiring a bankruptcy attorney is simply to have someone knowledgeable who can help guide you through the paperwork process. In bankruptcy cases the paperwork is the most overwhelming aspect and more often than not, bankruptcy attorneys will actually fill out and file all of the paperwork for you. This takes away the burden of dealing with paperwork in the middle of a financially and emotionally straining time. An experienced bankruptcy attorney can guide you in selection of the right Chapter. Selection of the right Chapter is very important. To qualify for relief under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, the debtor must be an individual, a partnership, or a corporation. The means test has now made it difficult for individuals to qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Chapter 13 acts like a consolidation loan under which you make the plan payments to a chapter 13 trustee who then distributes payments to creditors. You will have no direct contact with creditors while under chapter 13 protection. Chapter 11 can involve restructuring business debts with creditors, selling off assets to streamline the corporation, and other changes. A bankruptcy attorney is well worth his cost. It will pay rich dividends through peace of mind, simplifying the procedures and probably actual money saved in following your bankruptcy attorney’s advice.
