Bankruptcy Relief

Bankruptcy is a federal law that allows
individuals, married couples, and businesses
to eliminate or restructure their debts when
their expenses exceed their income.

Debtors often file a Chapter 13 (reorganization)
or a Chapter 7 (liquidation) bankruptcy in an
attempt to avoid paying the loan, and
sometimes in an attempt to strip existing
liens off the property. These types of filings cost
the mortgage industry millions annually to contest.

Bankruptcy 101

The property of the debtor is taken over by a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy for the benefit of the creditors, in accordance with the National Bankruptcy Act.

Bankruptcy allows debtors to discharge their debts; however, bankruptcy itself does not remove liens against property.
