Many clients are worried about filing bankruptcy because they fear that it will negatively affect their credit. However, this is not true. Filing for bankruptcy does not mean you will never be able to obtain a mortgage or loan in the future. If you file for bankruptcy, it remains on your financial record for 7-10 years but it does not mean that your credit is ruined. In fact, your credit can often improve after filing bankruptcy because it starts to reduce your debt and your debt to income ratio will improve.
Additionally, filing bankruptcy means you are not eligible to file bankruptcy again for a number of years, which actually removes you as a credit risk. For these reasons, filing bankruptcy can be a great way to obtain a “fresh start.” If you have concerns about bankruptcy, you should contact an attorney right away so that we can explain the various bankruptcy options to you and clear up any misconceptions you may have.
