Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Schedule Now

Chapter 7 bankruptcy, often referred to as a "straight bankruptcy," provides individuals and businesses with a fresh start by discharging most unsecured debts. At Martin Law Group, we represent clients in Chapter 7 bankruptcy across Virginia, D.C., and Maryland, guiding them through the process with well-honed knowledge and skill, and personalized attention.  


Understanding Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: 


  • Debt Discharge: Chapter 7 allows debtors to eliminate debts such as credit cards, personal loans, medical bills, judgments, utility bills, and certain IRS debts. 
  • Asset Liquidation: “Non-exempt” assets may be liquidated by a trustee to pay creditors, although there are exemptions to protect essential possessions like homes, cars, and retirement benefits. 
  • Creditor Protection: Filing for Chapter 7 triggers an automatic stay, halting creditor collections, garnishments, and lawsuits during the bankruptcy case. 
  • Speed and Completeness: Chapter 7 cases are typically completed within a few months, providing a swift and comprehensive debt-relief solution for eligible individuals and businesses.   


Our services in this practice area include:

Initial Consultation

We offer a free consultation to assess your financial situation, potential eligibility for Chapter 7 relief, and discuss the benefits and considerations of bankruptcy.
