Bankruptcy is a legal remedy which provides relief to individuals and businesses in serious financial trouble. Generally, the bankruptcy process assesses the debtor’s assets and liabilities and provides a structure within which the debtor is allowed to retain some property and satisfy as many eligible debts as possible, according to an order of priority established by law. Usually unsecured debts are discharged, however, domestic support orders, debt obtained by fraud and most tax debts are typically not dischargeable.

The traditional stigma of bankruptcy has faded and clients are advised bankruptcy provides a fresh start after a time of trouble. Most bankruptcy debtors have experienced unexpected and extreme financial shock due to sudden events such as job loss, business failure, death, divorce or illness.
