Many people believe that if you file Chapter 7 Bankruptcy you will ruin your credit forever and you can basically forget about ever getting credit again. This is complete and utter nonsense and here's two reasons why...

What are the main differences between a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy and a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy?  Sometimes, it helps to peel the onion back, layer by layer, and go back to the basics. What are the primary differences between a Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy? We will leave the question of which one you should file for a different day.

It seems like such a simple question doesn’t it? What is a creditor? A creditor is someone who you either owe money to or claims you owe money to.

For example, you might have a 10k balance on your Master Card account. Master Card is a creditor of yours. You owe them 10k and they would like you to pay them 10k.

If you are living in or around Woodbury, MN and suffering from overwhelming debt, you are not alone. Each year, more than 15,000 Minnesotans file for bankruptcy protection because the debt simply becomes unmanageable. Suffering from overwhelming debt is mentally and physically stressful. If you find yourself in this position, there are a few things to do right now.

At Lifeback Law, we have been at filing Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcies for a very long time. In fact, we have been filing bankruptcies since 1972. Kain & Scott is Minnesota’s oldest bankruptcy law firm. Throughout these many decades we have seen a thing or two as to what causes our guests in Minneapolis, Minnesota to file chapter 7 bankruptcy.

Ah the great state of Minnesota in the summer. Fishing, barbeques, fireworks, the sound of loons. I love it. But, if you are suffering from overwhelming debt in Minnesota, these things may not have the same meaning for you. It’s hard to enjoy Minnesota summers when all you can think about is your overwhelming debt.

Kain & Scott has been helping Minnesotans get their life back since 1972! We have seen and heard just about everything you can imagine when it relates to debt, how people feel about it and how it affects peoples’ mental and physical health. The apprehension people feel about filing bankruptcy is real. And yet, the vast majority never regret filing bankruptcy.

Bankruptcy is quite unlike other civil cases in Minnesota. In a divorce or commercial dispute, the judge controls almost everything that goes on in the case. But in a bankruptcy, the debtor may not ever even see the judge. In fact, it’s not uncommon for the debtor never to even go in a courtroom.

Instead, the trustee has day-to-day responsibilities in terms of case management. These responsibilities vary significantly between a Chapter 7 and a Chapter 13. However, the trustee’s overall role in a Minnesota bankruptcy remains the same. The trustee, who is not a judge and may not even be a lawyer, must do what is in the best interests of the creditors. The trustee is not on your side. That’s your lawyer’s job.

Out of all of the questions we get asked, this is by far and away the single biggest question we get at Kain & Scott. Everyone, and rightly so, wants to know if I file bankruptcy how will this impact my ability to get future credit. And what you think happens, does not. If you live in Woodbury, Minnesota, or anywhere else in Minnesota, read on.

Many of our guests simply know they need to file bankruptcy. What they don’t always know is who should they hire to help them get their lives back. Recently, we put together a 15 minute video to help with answering the question of who should you hire to help you get your life back. 15 minutes could save you a lot of headache and money! You will soon see the video on our website at www.kainscott.com.

The 2005 bankruptcy reform act significantly changed parts of the pre-filing process. Supposedly, banks approached then-President George W. Bush about such a measure shortly after he took office in 2001. But because of the proposal’s harshness, he said he would not sign it until his second term. The 2005 law made a number of changes which were designed to make it harder to file Chapter 7. These changes are outlined below.

Other parts of the pre-filing process are unchanged. That include the initial consultation with your Minnesota bankruptcy attorney. At Kain & Scott, we believe in very thorough consultations which review all your bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy debt relief options. An extensive consultation also helps clients understand what happens when they file bankruptcy. That is a tremendous advantage for everyone.
