New Hampshire Bankruptcy: Frequently Asked Questions

What Is Bankruptcy?

Bankruptcy is a legal action that allows debtors to get a fresh start on their finances. There are two options:

  • Sell non-exempt property or properties and discharge the debt.
  • Come up with a repayment plan over the next 3-5 years.

The right to file bankruptcy comes from federal law, and all cases are handled in federal court, regardless of what state you reside in.

What Can Filing New Hampshire Bankruptcy Do For Me?

Bankruptcy may make it possible for you to do a few things. You may be able to get rid of most of your debt, known as a discharge of debt. Filing for bankruptcy will stop all creditor actions, including foreclosure, repossession, and wage garnishment. Filing for bankruptcy may also enable you or your lawyer to challenge creditor claims.

How Much Will It Cost Me To File For Bankruptcy in New Hampshire?

There is no specific “one-fee-fits-all” cost for filing bankruptcy.  It depends on what chapter bankruptcy is being filed and the simplicity or complexity of the case.  We will be happy to give you an estimate once we have had the opportunity to review the facts and circumstances of your particular matter. 

Will Bankruptcy Get Rid of All of My Debt?

No. Bankruptcy will eliminate all unsecured debt, such as credit card loans and medical bills. It will not normally wipe out:

  • Student Loans
  • Mortgages
  • Child, Support, or Alimony Debt
  • Tax Debt
Why Should I File For Bankruptcy?
  • If you are receiving constant calls from bill collectors, bankruptcy immediately ends that harassment.
  • If you are under the threat of foreclosure or eviction, bankruptcy will immediately stop those actions.
  • If you are losing sleep, fighting with your spouse or partner, and/or in a constant state of anxiety over your financial difficulty, bankruptcy will alleviate your stress.
  • Bankruptcy will allow you to walk away from practically all of your debt, such as credit card bills, loans, medical expenses, as well as other types of debt.

Buckley Law Offices recognizes that most people are responsible and hard-working members of the community who want to be able to pay their debt, but because of circumstances such as divorce, unemployment, COVID-19, illness, injury, or the death of a primary wage earner, it has become a near impossible task to repay the debt arising from the circumstances. 

Bankruptcy allows the debtor to file for bankruptcy so that most, if not all, of the incurred debt is discharged, meaning it is no longer owed. This is called a fresh start, and thousands of people and businesses across New Hampshire have availed themselves of this fantastic opportunity. Many of them have done so with the help of Buckley Law Offices.
