Bankruptcy Explained9546639

If your debt has become unmanageable then bankruptcy is an efficient option immediately freeing you from debt and providing the chance to you to have a new start. You will be discharged after a maximum of 12 months and perhaps even earlier depending on your circumstances (some people are discharged after 6-8 months). All your unsecured debts will be written off by insolvency and none of your creditors will be able to pursue you for them anymore.

If your mounting debts are unmanageable and you cannot see a practical prospect of clearing these debts in the foreseeable future, then filing for the safety of a Bankruptcy Order might be the remedy for you. It could be that bankruptcy may be probably the most acceptable debt solution for you if your debt has become unmanageable and you can not maintain your monthly repayments. You may of been told that bankruptcy should be viewed as a last resort, and that you should attempt an IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement), IPP (Informal Payment Plan) or DMP (Debt Administration Plan) first, yet this isn't always appropriate. What's right for you depends entirely on your conditions as these are all solutions to the same difficulty, but tackled differently.

You are instantly free from debt and will not be responsible for any of your pre-existing debts. This is a fresh start for you and your family to start again and build yourself up from a place of power. You are immediately safeguarded from all existing lenders who form a part of your bankruptcy.
