BANKRUPTCY & DEBT RELIEF
GLEN ELLYN · ZOOM & TELEPHONE CONSULTATIONS
A careful approach to property and debt.
Before selling an asset or using retirement savings to catch up on cards, consider a bankruptcy consultation. Glen Ellyn residents can review ownership, liens, and the reasons behind a proposed transaction. A well-intended transfer can raise questions that are easier to address before it happens.
Make a list of accounts and property, including jointly owned assets. Note recent gifts, transfers, and payments to relatives. Bring records and discuss the history candidly; do not try to reconstruct a financial picture around what you think should count.
Before choosing a chapter, identify what you need the discussion to resolve. Are you trying to understand a notice, keep up with a secured payment, or evaluate whether your current debt payments are sustainable? Bring those goals as well as the balances.
Chapter 7 guidance explains the questions surrounding discharge and property. Chapter 13 guidance introduces the repayment structure. Use the side-by-side comparison as a starting point, then discuss the facts rather than trying to self-select a chapter.
