Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: A Fresh Start That’s Yours to Take

When financial stress starts to take over your life, when the bills pile up, the phone won’t stop ringing, and every paycheck seems to disappear before you see it, Chapter 7 bankruptcy can be the clean slate that helps you breathe again. It’s not a failure. It’s a federal legal right created to help honest people regain their financial footing and move forward with confidence.

At Royes Law LLC, we help individuals understand, qualify for, and successfully complete the Chapter 7 process. One that offers real relief and a chance to start over.

Why Chapter 7 Might Be Right for You

If you’re struggling with credit card debt, medical bills, personal loans, or collection lawsuits, Chapter 7 may be the right solution. Unlike repayment plans under Chapter 13, Chapter 7 allows you to completely eliminate (or “discharge”) many unsecured debts so you can get a genuine financial reset.

Many clients choose Chapter 7 because:

  • Their income has dropped or they’ve lost a job.
  • They’re overwhelmed by debt collectors or lawsuits.
  • They want to stop wage garnishments or bank levies.
  • They need a quick and affordable way to regain financial stability.

If you qualify under the Chapter 7 “means test,” most unsecured debts like credit cards, payday loans, and medical bills can be erased, usually within just a few months.

Ignoring the Myths and Stigma

Unfortunately, a lot of people avoid bankruptcy because of fear or shame often fueled by misinformation. The truth is that bankruptcy doesn’t mean failure. It’s a legal tool written into federal law to protect you.

Many of the most successful business owners, professionals, and public figures in America have filed for bankruptcy at some point. The system exists not to punish you, but to give you a fresh start when life happens. Uncontrollable and unexpected things like illness, job loss, inflation, or unexpected hardship.

At Royes Law LLC, we believe in removing the stigma and replacing it with understanding. Choosing Chapter 7 isn’t giving up. It’s standing up and taking control of your future.

The Benefits of Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Filing Chapter 7 can have immediate and long-term benefits that restore peace of mind and financial stability. Here are some of the biggest advantages:

  • Immediate protection from creditors — Once you file, the automatic stay goes into effect, stopping all collection calls, wage garnishments, and lawsuits.
  • Elimination of most unsecured debts — Credit cards, medical bills, and personal loans are typically wiped out completely.
  • Keep essential property — In most cases, you can keep your home, vehicle, and personal belongings through federal or state exemptions.
  • A fast, affordable path to relief — Most Chapter 7 cases are completed in three to four months.
  • Rebuild your credit faster — While bankruptcy stays on your report for several years, many clients are able to rebuild their credit scores quickly, sometimes qualifying for new credit or car loans within a year.
  • Peace of mind and a fresh start — The emotional relief alone can be life-changing. The constant stress of debt collectors and late notices disappears, replaced by the freedom to rebuild your finances the right way.
