Comprehensive Bankruptcy Advice in Rhode Island and Massachusetts Our firm routinely handles simple and complex bankruptcy petitions under Chapter 7, 13 and 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. We evaluate our clients' needs, explain the options available and enable our clients to make informed decisions about their financial future. - Chapter 7 bankruptcy: Chapter 7 bankruptcy allows people to obtain a fresh financial start. Eligible debt, such as credit card bills, past due utility bills and other debt is legally discharged. While some property may require liquidation in order to repay certain creditors, individuals are often capable of maintaining many of their assets.
- Chapter 13 bankruptcy: Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows individuals to regain control of their finances. Debt is consolidated into a manageable repayment plan (although some of the debt may be discharged). Rather than dealing with several creditors and past due notices, debtors make one manageable monthly payment to a trustee who distributes payment to creditors. Chapter 13 is one method to stop foreclosure.
- Chapter 11 bankruptcy: Chapter 11 bankruptcy is business reorganization, available to sole proprietors, partnerships, corporations and other business entities. Debt is reorganized into a repayment plan which enables the business to regain control of business finances in order to continue operation.
