When to Seriously Consider Filing for BankruptcyBeing overwhelmed by debt seems to be the “American way”. However, there comes a time when being overwhelmed turns into literally drowning in debt, being harassed by creditors, and facing repossession or foreclosure. So when, exactly, should you seriously consider filing for bankruptcy?
Remember that filing for bankruptcy is a serious decision that only you can choose to do. No one can decide for you. Further, in order for an attorney to accurately answer the above questions, you must sit down with an attorney, disclose all of your property and all of your debts, which is often intimidating for clients. These questions cannot be answered during a 15 minute phone call. Therefore, when you contact an attorney regarding bankruptcy, your basic questions can be answered, but understand that a consultation, in person, is normally required to give you all of the information you need to make an informed decision. |
