Are There Any Types of Debt Chapter 7 Doesn’t Cover?

Regrettably, Chapter 7 bankruptcies are unable to erase certain types of debt that can significantly impact your financial situation. For instance, if you have outstanding income taxes owed to either the federal or state government, or if you are required to pay child or spousal support, or have student loans, you’ll need to explore alternative payment arrangements for these liabilities, as they cannot be discharged through bankruptcy. However, pursuing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy for any other types of debt can be a vital tool to help you free up additional funds, which can then be utilized to manage these specific financial obligations more effectively. It’s absolutely crucial that you begin collaborating with a legal professional who possesses a deep and thorough understanding of bankruptcy law.


At Casey Legal, P.C., our skilled and experienced Chapter 7 attorneys will sit down with you to carefully devise a comprehensive plan that will assist you in successfully navigating your financial difficulties.

What Are Some of the Requirements for a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?

To effectively safeguard against the potential for excessive exploitation by high-income individuals who may be seeking an "easy out" in difficult financial circumstances, individuals who are considering filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy are required to successfully pass a means test. This important test is designed to assure the court that your income is not sufficiently high to feasibly settle your debts in a reasonable manner. In addition to passing the means test, individuals must also engage in mandatory financial counseling within the six-month period leading up to their filing. This counseling is a crucial step that helps individuals better understand their financial situation.


To ensure that all these stipulations are adequately met and that all essential paperwork is filed correctly and timely, it is imperative that you consult with a qualified legal professional well in advance of your filing. This proactive approach will help make the entire process as seamless and efficient as possible, allowing you to focus on your path to financial recovery. Begin your journey towards financial liberation today by reaching out to Jessica Casey at Casey Legal, P.C. in Virginia, who is dedicated to addressing all your bankruptcy law needs with experience and compassion.
