Our Las Vegas lawyers provide free information to you on this site in order to help you determine if bankruptcy is right for you and answer some important questions about what bankruptcy entails.

A business or an individual can declare bankruptcy once they have ascertained that it has become impossible to pay off their debt. It can give you a chance to start over financially, as most of debts are relieved after bankruptcy as been filed. Chapter 7, or liquidation bankruptcy, means that your "estate" – i.e., your assets – is sold in order to pay off your creditors.

A reorganization bankruptcy can also involve the selling of assets, but you may be able to retain a majority of your assets while your creditors' needs are assessed. Reorganization bankruptcies can be filed under the following guidelines:

1. Chapter 9   – municipalities
2. Chapter 11 – businesses and individuals with many assets
3. Chapter 12 – farmers, fisherman
4. Chapter 13 – individuals with steady income
5. Chapter 15 – international cases
