A Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, also called a "straight bankruptcy", is a form of a personal bankruptcy which involves the liquidation of as much of the debtor's assets and property (unsecured debt), which does not fall under the bankruptcy exemption guidelines, essentially reserving him or her sufficient assets to start on a clean slate. In short, the purpose of a chapter 7 bankruptcy is to wipe out your debts, allowing you to get a "Fresh Financial Start".

In a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, a trustee will be appointed by the court to liquidate (sell) all assets which do not fall under the bankruptcy exemption guidelines. The net proceeds collected in the liquidation of the non-exempt assets are then distributed to your creditors.

Debts which cannot be included for discharge in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy may include, but not limited to:

  • Alimony spousal support;

  • Child support;

  • Fraudulent debts;

  • Certain taxes;

  • Student loans;

  • And certain items which have been charged.

In many Chapter 7 bankruptcy situations you may be able to keep specific secured debts such as your car, furniture, or home, as long as you reaffirm  your commitment to continue paying these debts.
