Bankruptcy allows for a fresh start in life!<br />

Advertorial by<br />

Attorney Ed Woodland<br />

In the last three years,<br />

a lot of bad things have<br />

happened to good people<br />

in this valley. We all know<br />

at least one person who<br />

has lost all of their home<br />

equity, lost a job, been<br />

foreclosed on, spent all of<br />

their savings paying their<br />

creditors, been turned<br />

down for a loan modification,<br />

had their wages garnished,<br />

been sued, or lost<br />

everything.<br />

You don’t have to be<br />

the next victim on the list.<br />

Bankruptcy can help!<br />

The specific benefits<br />

to filing for bankruptcy<br />

are varied, depending<br />

upon whether you file<br />

under Chapter 7 or<br />

Chapter 13, as well as the<br />

specific circumstances of<br />

your financial situation<br />

and your case itself.<br />

Possibly the most important<br />

benefit at the start of<br />

the bankruptcy process is<br />

that all debt collection<br />

efforts m<strong>us</strong>t cease, once<br />

you file your bankruptcy<br />

petition.<br />

This means that creditor<br />

harassment, wage garnishment,<br />

foreclosure,<br />

debt<br />

collection lawsuits, repossession<br />

and all related<br />

activity m<strong>us</strong>t be placed on<br />

hold. Filing for bankruptcy<br />

can give you muchneeded<br />

breathing room as<br />

you figure out what to do<br />

to save your home from<br />

foreclosure, or what debts<br />

you wish to reaffirm so<br />

you can keep certain<br />

property.<br />

It is a common misconception<br />

that filing for<br />

bankruptcy will mean<br />

that you will lose your<br />

home, your car, your b<strong>us</strong>iness<br />

and all of your possessions,<br />

and that you<br />

will not be able to rebuild<br />

your credit in the future.<br />

This is simply not the<br />

truth!<br />

Even when filing for<br />

bankruptcy, you can<br />

ensure that certain assets<br />

are protected, particularly<br />

if you file under Chapter<br />

13 and undergo a reorganization<br />

of your debt,<br />

Attorney Ed<br />

Woodland says<br />

bankruptcy law<br />

truly offers people<br />

a second<br />

chance - a fresh<br />

start!<br />

rather than a liquidation<br />

of assets to pay off creditors.<br />

When a Chapter 7 or<br />

Chapter 13 bankruptcy is<br />

successfully completed,<br />

all eligible debt will be<br />

discharged. You will be<br />

free and clear of all eligible<br />

debt and will have no<br />

further obligation to those<br />

creditors.<br />

This is the final goal of<br />

any bankruptcy case and<br />

the reason it can benefit a<br />

debtor so greatly.<br />

Bankruptcy law truly<br />

offers people a second<br />

chance - a fresh start!<br />

Bankruptcy Myths<br />

There are many myths<br />

about how difficult life<br />

can be after bankruptcy.<br />

Some may say that it will<br />

be impossible to buy a<br />

home or a car, or that you<br />

can never rebuild your<br />

credit. This is simply<br />

untrue.<br />

Most of our clients feel<br />

a great deal of relief after<br />

filing for bankruptcy. In<br />

taking control of their<br />

finances, stopping foreclosure<br />

and discharging<br />

debt, they are able to<br />

breathe again and have<br />

the opportunity to make<br />

the right decisions this<br />

time around, in order to<br />

avoid a similar situation<br />

again in the future.<br />

Bankruptcy is a valuable<br />

legal recourse that<br />

enables people to get a<br />

fresh start financially.<br />

I welcome you to contact<br />

our firm and talk to<br />

<strong>us</strong> about how bankruptcy<br />

can benefit you and your<br />

family.<br />
