How Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Works
The Chapter 7 process begins with a thorough review of your income, assets, debts, and financial obligations to determine eligibility. If Chapter 7 is the right solution, a bankruptcy petition is filed with the court, and a trustee is assigned to oversee your case.
The process generally includes:
- Completing required credit counseling
- Filing your Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition
- Attending the meeting of creditors (341 meeting)
- Reviewing available Connecticut bankruptcy exemptions
- Receiving a discharge of eligible debts
Many Chapter 7 bankruptcy cases are completed within a few months, allowing individuals to eliminate qualifying debt and begin rebuilding their credit sooner.
