Frequently Asked Question

What will happen to my credit score?

It depends. Short term, a bankruptcy filing will hurt a filer’s credit score. However, the bankruptcy discharge will force the discharged creditors to stop negatively reporting to the credit bureaus which will allow positive trade lines on the credit report to improve the credit score.

When can I make my creditors stop harassing me?

Creditors are required to stop all collections activity as soon as the case is filed.

What is a bankruptcy discharge?

The bankruptcy discharge is an injunction issued by the bankruptcy court that forbids creditors from taking any act to collect on the discharged debt. The injunction allows the debtor to seek damages from the bankruptcy court for any violation of its order which is what gives the bankruptcy court power.

Is my spouse required to file bankruptcy with me?

No, nothing in the bankruptcy code requires both spouses to file together. This is helpful for couples that have separate debt or when one spouse has an excellent credit score.
