BK7 DC - Now Rebuilding

Edit 12/28/22: BK has discharged and I am now rebuilding. I am keeping all updates in one place so it is easily found. 

 

Hey guys. I'm in the process of filing Ch7 with help from an attorney. 

I've got student loans (which won't be discharged), and credit card debt - very old debt from AMEX and some from Capitol One. 

 

I cant wait to put this stuff behind me. I should be paid up with paperwork submitted to my attorney by the end of the week.

Good luck! It can definitely lift some weight off of your shoulders when you file. It definitely did for me.

@DogwoodLynx  This is a wonderful way to put your debts behind you. After bankruptcy is completed, you get a fresh start and can begin your credit rebuild. One year of steady perfect credit, and you will be in great shape.

Re: My Ch7 Journey

Thank you! I'm happy to be able to do it. I buried my head in the sand for years and put off talking to an attorney. I'm glad I finally met with one because it wasn't nearly as bad as I made it out to be. (Isn't that always the case? Lol)
