For example, filing bankruptcy will stop a pending collection lawsuit, foreclosure, and creditor phone calls.<\/p>\n<h2>Debts Eliminated in Bankruptcy<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Credit Cards<\/li>\n<li>Medical<\/li>\n<li>Payday Loans<\/li>\n<li>Personal Loans<\/li>\n<li>Repossessions<\/li>\n<li>Unemployment Overpayments<\/li>\n<li>Other General Unsecured Debts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are some debts that cannot be eliminated in bankruptcy. For example, most <a href=\"https:\/\/sacramentolawgroup.com\/sacramento-nondischargeable-debts\/student-loan-debt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">student loans<\/a> cannot be eliminated in bankruptcy.

To qualify for chapter 7 bankruptcy your income for the past 6 months must fall below a certain threshold. If your income exceeds that threshold you must pass the \u201cmeans test\u201d (a calculation your attorney performs) or file chapter 13 bankruptcy. If your income falls below that threshold or you pass the means test, and you have not received a discharge in chapter 7 bankruptcy within the past 8 years, you will generally be able to file chapter 7 bankruptcy.<\/p>\n<p>When you file chapter 7 bankruptcy you can protect certain items of property up to certain values. Fortunately, if you do not own a home California is very generous with how much property you can protect. In the vast majority of chapter 7 bankruptcy filed by attorneys, all property is protected. With that said, call our bankruptcy attorney at <strong><a href=\"tel:+19165000704\">(916) 500-0704<\/a><\/strong> for a free phone consultation to ensure that all your property is protected in chapter 7 bankruptcy. Any property that is not protected can be seized and sold by the <a href=\"http:\/\/mod13.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bankruptcy Trustee<\/a>, so a free phone consultation is very important before filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><b><em>Note<\/em><\/b> &#8211; after you file chapter 7 bankruptcy you do not have the right to dismiss your case. Accordingly, if you file chapter 7 bankruptcy and cannot protect your property from seizure\/sale by the Bankruptcy Trustee (ex. a house you own in the Bahamas), you cannot dismiss your case to prevent the seizure\/sale. You\u2019re stuck after filing the chapter 7 bankruptcy petition &#8211; so call a bankruptcy attorney before filing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Most people file chapter 7 bankruptcy because the majority of cases result in the elimination of credit card debts, medical bills, loans, and other general unsecured debts with no loss of property. Best of all, the case is over in a few months.<\/p>\n<h2>Chapter 13 Bankruptcy<\/h2>\n<p>Chapter 13 bankruptcy is reserved for individuals who make too much money to qualify for chapter 7 bankruptcy or own property that would be sold in chapter 7 bankruptcy. In <a href=\"https:\/\/sacramentobankruptcylawyer.us\/chapter-13-bankruptcy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">chapter 13 bankruptcy<\/a> you can protect all your property, but you repay all or a portion of your debts over 5 years. How much you repay depends on your debt and income. Almost all chapter 13 cases are filed by an attorney as the chapter 13 plan and requirements for confirmation are very complicated and require years of specialization in chapter 13 bankruptcy.<\/p>\n<h3>Foreclosure<\/h3>\n<p>Chapter 13 bankruptcy is popular among clients facing a home foreclosure. In chapter 13 bankruptcy you can both <a href=\"https:\/\/sacramentobankruptcylawyer.us\/foreclosure-defense\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stop the foreclosure sale immediately<\/a> and keep your home through a 5-year repayment plan. Through the repayment plan, you will repay the delinquent payments while maintaining current payments.
