Everyone’s situation is different but there are some cases where filing for bankruptcy or chapter 7 will help make a new start financially speaking. What is chapter 7? It’s when they go in and whip out all of your accounts with outstanding balances (not including your student loans), this effectively eliminates the debt and will help you get back on your feet and ready for a new beginning.
