CHAPTER 7 PROVIDES IMMEDIATE RELIEF

Chapter 7 bankruptcy can help you obtain immediate financial relief. From the moment you file, an automatic stay is created that temporarily halts most creditors from further collection activities, including wage garnishments, auto repossessions and harassing collection calls.
