File bankruptcy in Houston

You are not the only one. Especially with the recent slump in the economy, many Americans are having financial troubles and turning to bankruptcy as a way out. In 2009, over one million people filed for bankruptcy.

The Law Office of Russell Van Beustring focuses its practice on handling the following three types of bankruptcies:

•  A Chapter 7 bankruptcy is the most common type of bankruptcy filed by individuals. In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, also referred to as liquidation, individuals or businesses must sell all their assets that are not considered “exempt” in order to pay off their debts. The debt that remains unpaid will usually be discharged. However, there are certain debts (such as the majority of student loans) that are protected under law and are not dischargeable.
•  A Chapter 11 bankruptcy is used mainly by businesses in order to reorganize their finances without discontinuing operations. Although individuals in certain circumstances are entitled to file a Chapter 11, it is rarely done. This type of bankruptcy is also known as a B2B bankruptcy.
•  A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is another option for individuals who have some regular income. It enables you to organize a payment or partial payment plan to eventually pay off your debt.
