FAQs

What If I Am Leasing My Car and File Chapter 7?

If you are leasing your car when you file Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you can choose to either continue making the monthly lease payments or surrender the car back to the creditor.

What Is A 910 Claim?

If you bought your vehicle within 910 days (2-1/2 years) of filing your bankruptcy case and you have not refinanced the original loan, you must repay the entire car loan. The good news is that the interest rate you pay on your car loan may be significantly reduced and the amount of time required to repay the loan modified to match the length of your bankruptcy plan. This reduction in interest and changing of the length of time you have to repay often results in a dramatically reduced payment.

What Is A Cramdown?

If you bought your car more than 910 days before you file bankruptcy, or your car loan was refinanccd after you purchased your car you will only have to repay an amount equal to the present value of the car.

What Is A Credit Score?

Your credit score is a three-digit number generally relied upon by lenders to determine how good (or bad) a credit risk you are. Traditional credit scores range from 300 to 850. Each of the three major credit bureaus, Experian, Equifax and TransUnion, calculates these scores a little differently, so the score that you receive from one credit bureau may not match one requested by a lender from another bureau.

What Is a Debt Discharge?

A debt discharge prevents your creditor from ever attempting to collect on that debt. Regardless of the type of bankruptcy filed, most include a discharge of all eligible debt at their conclusion. A discharge means you never have to worry about paying back the debt again. From your perspective, it is simply gone!

No one ever wants to file for bankruptcy, but sometimes life takes unexpected turns and it is the best option. You may be hesitant to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy because of the negative connotations associated with it. However, it is essential to understand that Chapter 7 may be the best solution to resolve your financial burden. Especially if you live in Tennessee, there are numerous benefits to filing for Chapter 7 that can help you get back on track financially. In this blog, we will explore the benefits of Chapter 7 bankruptcy and how filing for bankruptcy can be a positive move forward. 1. Relief from Debt The primary benefit of Chapter 7 bankruptcy is the debt relief it provides. All eligible debts, including medical bills, credit card debts, and loan obligations, are discharged at the end of the bankruptcy process, meaning you don't owe the creditors anything. Instead of living your life as a slave to your creditors, Chapter 7 gives you a fresh start, allowing you to rebuild your life with a clean slate financially. 2. No More Creditor Harassment When you file for bankruptcy, you are legally protected from creditor harassment. Your creditors must contact your attorney and not you. This can provide tremendous relief and peace of mind. No more phone calls or threatening letters from creditors; you can live your life without the fear of constant legal pressure.
