Bankruptcy is about starting over. It is about
ending the cycle of debt collector calls and putting the credit
nightmare behind you.
Each person reaches a decision to
file bankruptcy for different reasons. Some have had business
failure, others have lost their job or have gone though a difficult
physical or emotional period. Hospital stays can be very expensive.
Medical bills can mount up to many hundreds thousands of dollars.
It seems that there is no where to turn. Yet, there is. The U.S.
bankruptcy Laws have been making it possible for people to get
rid of unwanted debts and start a new life, leaving their most
perplexing problem behind.
For some people, filing
a bankruptcy case will give them the breath of relief that they
have been searching for. Bankruptcy results in the grant of a discharge
of debts to an individual or a couple. A discharge is the forgiveness
of personal liability for debts, which have been incurred prior
to the filing of the case.
With few exceptions,
immediately upon filing the petition, creditors are prohibited from
suing a debtor, obtaining a judgment, or collecting for debts, which
have been discharged and will have no claim on the future income
of assets of the individual who has filed for bankruptcy relief
as a debtor.
For many there is the new HAMP Home Mortgage Modification Program, which can literally rewrite your mortgage, reducing interest to as low as 2 %.
