How much does it cost to file bankruptcy in Arizona?

What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy discharges most unsecured debts (like credit cards and medical bills) in about 3-4 months with no repayment plan. Chapter 13 involves a 3-5 year repayment plan and is used to catch up on mortgage or car payments, or when you earn too much to qualify for Chapter 7.
Will I lose my house or car if I file bankruptcy in Arizona?
Most people who file bankruptcy in Arizona keep their home and car. Arizona has generous exemption laws that protect equity in your home, vehicle, household goods, and retirement accounts. Our attorneys analyze your assets before filing to ensure everything important is protected.
Does bankruptcy stop wage garnishment and debt collectors?
Yes. The moment your bankruptcy is filed, an automatic stay goes into effect that immediately stops wage garnishments, debt collector calls, lawsuits, and most collection activity. This federal court protection applies to all creditors.
How long does bankruptcy stay on my credit report?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years and Chapter 13 stays for 7 years. However, most clients see their credit scores recover within 1-2 years after filing because unmanageable debt is eliminated.
