Bankruptcy Help for Individuals

Are you living with the burden of overwhelming debt? Edward Paul can help you obtain debt relief through your Chapter 7, Chapter 11 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing. Depending on your financial situation, we can guide you to a fresh start using any of the following:

  • Chapter 7 bankruptcy: This is the most basic form of bankruptcy that provides you an opportunity to discharge many of your debts within months of filing.
  • Chapter 13 bankruptcy: You will enter into a three to five year repayment plan with your creditors.
  • Chapter 11 bankruptcy: This allows a Plan of Reorganization with more alternatives for individuals who have too much debt to qualify for a Chapter 13 case, or who have more complicated financial situations, such as owning a business.

It is important to note that you must complete an accredited credit counseling program in order to file bankruptcy. You can learn more by visiting our page on Credit Counseling. Please also review our Bankruptcy Information Sheet for more helpful information.
