Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

We serve Chapter 7 bankruptcy applicants in Oklahoma

Oklahomans who have fallen on hard economic times — who find they have little or no money left after paying basic expenses (if they can meet those expenses) — may qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection. If unsecured debts like medical bills are putting you "underwater," we urge you to speak with us today about filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

The Chapter 7 bankruptcy process is quick and efficient. Unsecured debts may be completely discharged in a matter of months. Chapter 7 bankruptcy, however, may involve the liquidation of assets (unlike Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which may allow you to retain equity in an asset). Filing under Chapter 7 usually is not preferable for those with significant equity or wealth.

A debtor must qualify under a means test and complete a pre-filing session with a credit counselor. Chapter 7 bankruptcy may involve a liquidation sale of secured debts and assets. Oklahoma law provides certain exemptions from this liquidation process, including but not limited to:

  • Your principal residence
  • One motor vehicle worth up to $7,500
  • Household and kitchen furniture
  • Cemetery lots
  • Tools for farming
  • Livestock / farm animals
  • Prescribed health aids
