If you are facing overwhelming debt in Raleigh, a bankruptcy lawyer can help you understand your options under federal and North Carolina law. North Carolina requires debtors to complete credit counseling before filing, and the state has specific exemptions for property like your home and car. A local lawyer can guide you through the process and represent you in the Eastern District of North Carolina bankruptcy court.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of bankruptcy are available in Raleigh?
Individuals in Raleigh typically file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Chapter 7 involves liquidating non-exempt assets to pay creditors, while Chapter 13 allows you to create a repayment plan over three to five years. North Carolina uses its own exemption system, which may protect more of your property than federal exemptions.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in North Carolina?
A Chapter 7 case usually takes three to six months from filing to discharge. Chapter 13 cases last the length of your repayment plan, typically three to five years. You must also complete a debtor education course before receiving your discharge.
Will I lose my house if I file for bankruptcy in Raleigh?
Not necessarily. North Carolina has a homestead exemption that can protect up to $35,000 of equity in your home, or up to $60,000 for joint filers. If your equity is within these limits, you may keep your house. A bankruptcy lawyer can review your specific situation.
