Can I Eliminate Credit Card Debt Through Bankruptcy?
Posted By Los Angeles Bankruptcy Lawyer on Mar 30, 2010 1:00pm PDT
Despite what you may have heard, you can eliminate your credit card debt through bankruptcy. Since the bankruptcy laws were revamped in 2005, many people have expressed confusion over whether or not they are still able to discharge their credit card through bankruptcy.
The news laws didn't eliminate a person's opportunity to discharge their credit card debt, they simply made it more difficult for people to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Whereas before pretty much anyone could file for Chapter 7, now people who wish to eliminate their debt without a repayment plan must first pass the
Means Test. Those who do not pass the test must either file for
Chapter 13 bankruptcy or look into some other debt relief options.
