If you have found yourself to be overwhelmed by the debt which keeps piling up, and have thought about the possibility of filing for credit card debt bankruptcy, then the question you are probably asking yourself now is whether or not it is the right solution for you. For starters, it is important to point out that there is no such thing as credit card debt bankruptcy, but rather a general chapter 7 which covers almost all forms of debt.
A few years ago, filing for bankruptcy and completely wiping out any debt that you have was a fairly simple process. Today though, this process has become a very time-consuming and challenging one. In most cases it will reap higher the assistance of a lawyer because you may not even be able to file for Chapter 7 and instead have to file for chapter 13 bankruptcy.
Basically, the difference between a chapter 7 and a Chapter 13, is that the Chapter 13 bankruptcy is quite literally a court ordered restructuring of your debt. As a result, you have no other choice but to continue paying off the debt, but is done in a manner which is next to impossible to miss a payment. Unfortunately though, your credit card score is also decreased when you file even though you still have to make payment.\
