Won’t filing for bankruptcy hurt my credit score?
Often times this is the first question people ask when they hear the work bankruptcy. Typically people who find themselves in high amounts of debt don’t have great credit, and after you file for bankruptcy you can begin rebuilding your credit. When you eliminate the debts that have burdened you you’ll be able to start rebuilding your credit with smart financial decisions.

- Medical bills
- Credit card debts
- Utilities

When you file for bankruptcy the harassing calls will stop and you’ll be able to get a fresh start financially. There are typically two main types of bankruptcy for individuals who are looking to file. The first is chapter 7 bankruptcy in which you must liquidate your assets to pay back the debts you owe. The other option is chapter 13 bankruptcy which doesn’t involve liquidation, rather this type puts you into a manageable monthly repayment play to help pay back your debts. Once you finish this repayment plan the rest of your debts are forgiven.
