Most people contemplating bankruptcy obviously are in a financial bind. As a result, it is natural that one of the questions they ask of a bankruptcy attorney is how much it will cost to file. This desire to keep bankruptcy costs as low as possible is understandable. Those considering bankruptcy should be aware that the best long-term option that saves the most money is not necessarily what appears to be the cheapest path.
Known as "liquidation" bankruptcy or "straight" bankruptcy, Chapter 7 is a fast-acting debt relief system that offers individuals a fresh start. This particular form of bankruptcy is attractive to individuals who suffer from large amounts of unsecured debts, such as medical bills, credit card debt, and utility expenses, as a large majority of these debts are forgiven as a result of filing.
When we hear about a bankruptcy in the news, especially that of a major corporate entity, they are usually talking about Chapter 11. Another type of repayment bankruptcy, Chapter 11 is known as a "reorganization bankruptcy." This indicates that over the course of the bankruptcy proceeding a debt repayment plan must be formulated and approved to give the company or individual a trajectory toward being debt free.

I came to David Benson at my absolute lowest. I was hesitant to even explore what options I had because I was raised to believe seeking bankruptcy was weak. Well as time went on and optimism for my situation to magically rectify itself faded, I broke free from that notion and I’m beyond happy I did. If you are in any jam and need a kind voice to reassure you from the very first call, David is the man. I told him what I was going through and he brought a calm to the storm so to speak.
I never once felt judged by him or anyone in his office as my case was an odd one, but luckily he stuck by my
