This option provides a fresh start by discharging eligible debts while protecting essential assets through Alabama’s exemption laws, serving clients throughout Carrollton, Aliceville, Gordo, and surrounding areas like Ethelsville and McMullen. By working closely with our team, clients can navigate the complexities of Chapter 7 with a clear understanding of what to expect at each stage, including means testing and asset exemptions. Local courts, such as those in Tuscaloosa, handle bankruptcy cases, and we guide you through these processes with clarity and confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Difference Between Chapter 7 & Chapter 13 Bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy involves the liquidation of non-exempt assets to pay off creditors and is generally suited for those with limited income and significant unsecured debt. In contrast, Chapter 13 allows individuals with a stable income to create a repayment plan to settle debts over three to five years. Each type has specific eligibility requirements, benefits, and drawbacks, so the choice depends heavily on your personal financial situation. Consulting with Marshall Law Firm will help you assess which option aligns with your goals to improve financial stability.
How Does Filing for Bankruptcy Affect My Credit Score?
Filing for bankruptcy will impact your credit score by making it reflect as a significant negative item; however, it also provides a fresh start by eliminating burdensome debts, allowing you to begin rebuilding creditworthiness. Generally, a Chapter 7 bankruptcy remains on your credit report for up to 10 years, while a Chapter 13 lasts for seven years. With financial discipline and strategic-guided rebuilding, many people recover to financial health faster than expected. At Marshall Law Firm, we provide guidance on steps to take post-bankruptcy to restore financial health effectively.
Can Bankruptcy Stop Creditor Harassment in Pickens County?
Yes, filing for bankruptcy initiates an automatic stay, which is a legal order that stops creditors from taking any collection actions against you. This includes phone calls, wage garnishments, lawsuits, and any direct contact. In Pickens County, like in other jurisdictions, this process is overseen by local bankruptcy courts, ensuring that all actions comply with federal bankruptcy laws. Our firm attentively manages these aspects, giving our clients the peace of mind to focus on resolving their financial situation without external pressures from creditors.
