Let Us Discharge You of Your Debt

Sometimes situations beyond your control can profoundly impact your earning potential, and lead to overwhelming debt. If you find yourself unable to pay your bills, you may want to consider filing for bankruptcy. Designed to give debtors a fresh start, Chapter 7 bankruptcy gives you and your spouse relief from debts through liquidation of your assets. 

 
With more than 30 years of experience, we at Law Offices of Ronald E. Stadtmueller can help you file for Chapter 7 quickly and efficiently. Once you have filed for bankruptcy, creditors must immediately stop collection efforts, including harassing letters and phone calls. Contact us today to for a FREE one-hour consultation.

Means Test for Qualifying Debtors

To qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy relief, you must satisfy the court’s means test, which calculates your income and expenses compared to the median income in California. If you are not eligible for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, Chapter 13 may be available. Law Offices of Ronald E. Stadtmueller can help you determine whether you are eligible for Chapter 7 bankruptcy and if it is your best solution for dealing with your debts.

Liquidation of Assets and Quick Discharge of Some Debts

Liquidation means selling assets to satisfy as much of your debt as possible, before the court orders a discharge for the rest of your qualifying debt. However, the law includes many exemptions that allow you to preserve assets, such as your car, clothing, and tools of your trade.
We can help you determine which of your assets are eligible for exemption, so you can get the maximum protection under law. Upon conclusion of the bankruptcy proceedings, the court grants a discharge of your remaining debt, with some notable exceptions.
These include child support and alimony payments, student loans, recent back taxes, and court judgments, based on personal injury claims. We advise you about how much of your debt is dischargeable, so you can make an informed decision about whether to pursue Chapter 7 bankruptcy or not.
