Your Trusted Partner in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy provides individuals a fast and effective way to eliminate most unsecured debts, such as credit cards, medical bills, and personal loans. Unlike Chapter 13, which requires a repayment plan, Chapter 7 allows you to discharge qualifying debts entirely, giving you a fresh financial start. While certain valuable assets may be protected under exemptions, non-exempt assets can be liquidated to satisfy creditors.

Through Venture Plans consultants and an experienced network of bankruptcy attorneys, you gain expert guidance in preparing, filing, and navigating Chapter 7 filings efficiently. With our support, you can stop collection calls, wage garnishments, and foreclosures almost immediately after filing.

Benefits of Chapter 7 Bankruptcy:

Rapid elimination of most unsecured debts
Immediate protection from lawsuits, wage garnishments, and creditor calls
Potential to discharge credit card balances, medical bills, and personal loans
Preserve exempt property while liquidating only non-exempt assets
Achieve a fresh financial start in a shorter timeframe than Chapter 13

Step-by-Step Process

Initial Consultation & Financial Review
- Our affiliate attorneys assess your financial situation, including income, debts, assets, and eligibility for Chapter 7. This ensures you qualify for a full debt discharge and identifies which assets may be exempt.
Preparation of the Skeleton Petition
- A skeleton petition is filed to immediately trigger the automatic stay. This stops foreclosure, repossession, wage garnishments, and collection lawsuits, giving you immediate relief from creditor actions.
Completion of Bankruptcy Schedules & Statement of Financial Affairs (SOFA)
- Within the court-specified deadline (typically 14 days), you must file detailed schedules of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses, as well as the SOFA. This provides full transparency to the court and trustee.
Asset Review and Exemption Selection
- Our attorneys guide you in identifying exempt property to protect from liquidation. Non-exempt assets, if any, may be sold by the trustee to pay creditors.
Meeting of Creditors (341 Meeting)
- You attend a required meeting with the bankruptcy trustee and any creditors. Our team prepares you with guidance on what to expect and how to respond to questions.
Debt Discharge & Case Closure
- After successful filing, schedules, and 341 meeting, the court discharges qualifying debts, giving you a fresh financial start. Any remaining non-exempt assets are handled per trustee procedures.
