Legal Question in Bankruptcy in New Jersey

Re: Bankruptcy

Most people use Chapter Seven Bankruptcies when there is no desire to work out a repayment plan.

With Chapter Seven the trustee sells the debptor's assets and the proceeds are paid to the creditors.You must meet a certain means income to qualify for Chapter Seven or show special circumstances to apply.

With Chapter Thriteen Bankruptcy the debptor works out a payment plan and does not have to have his/her assets sold.

Chapter 11 Bankruptcy is mainly used for businesses.

What is your main objective?
