VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Chapter 7 proceedings are available to people who basically can’t afford to pay their debts as they come due. So if you’re out there struggling with credit card payments or medical bills, then generally this is the right case for you.

If you’re behind on house payments and car payments, then a Chapter 7 generally is not the right type of case – because it’s not restructuring your financial picture.

This is a type of case that allows you to eliminate what we call “unsecured debt”, which is debt which does not have a lien on property in this type of proceeding.

So, if you’ve hit that bump in the road financially and if you’re out there struggling and stressing about debt, please give us a call at 214-760-7777. Let us walk you through your financial picture, and let’s make some good decisions for you.
