Filing For Chapter 7 Bankruptcy In Mississippi
Struggling with debt can be one of life’s most stressful challenges. I am Nicholas T. Grillo, and as a debt relief lawyer, I founded my firm in Hattiesburg to assist clients throughout southern Mississippi who are considering filing for bankruptcy. As a Chapter 7 bankruptcy attorney at Grillo Law Firm, I can walk you through everything you need to know to make an informed decision about your bankruptcy options and guide you through the process.
What Does Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Involve?
In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the trustee will gather any nonexempt assets and will use the proceeds to pay creditors. Chapter 7 bankruptcy will eliminate the following unsecured debts:
- Credit cards
- Medical bills
- Unpaid utility or phone bills
- Personal or unsecured loans that are not secured by collateral
Filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy will bring immediate relief. Once the bankruptcy paperwork is filed, aggressive collection efforts by credit card companies or for medical bills are required by law to stop. Filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy will provide you with a second chance to get control of your debts and finances.
In the state of Mississippi, you can typically complete a no-asset Chapter 7 bankruptcy in as little as 120 days. In addition, Mississippi also has options to apply for a fee waiver if necessary.
