What is a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?

In a Nutshell, Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, also known as the ‘fresh start’ bankruptcy, is a common legal process that allows you to totally erase many debts, including credit card debt, medical debt, car loans, and payday loan.

This chapter of the Bankruptcy Code provides for "liquidation" - the sale of a debtor's nonexempt property and the distribution of the proceeds to creditors.
