Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Stockbridge?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates non-exempt assets to pay creditors and typically takes 3 to 6 months. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a 3 to 5 year repayment plan and is better if you have a steady income or want to keep your home. A lawyer can help you decide which option fits your situation.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Georgia?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. However, you can start rebuilding your credit soon after your case is complete.
Do I need to live in Stockbridge to file for bankruptcy there?
You must have lived in Georgia for at least 91 days before filing. The case is filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia, which covers Stockbridge. Your lawyer will handle the paperwork and court appearances.
