Chapter 7 Bankruptcy for Individuals—
If you are an individual debtor with primarily non-business debt, you must qualify to file for chapter 7 bankruptcy based on your income and expenses.
A trustee is appointed in the case and sells any non-exempt property that you own or have an interest in at the time of filing the case.
You may keep exempt property under federal or state law, depending on which exemption scheme applies in your case.
Upon completion of the case, you may receive a discharge of the dischargeable debts that you listed in your bankruptcy petition at the time of filing.

A business may also file for chapter 7 bankruptcy. Consult with us about the specific issues that may arise in business cases.
