What are Secured Debts?
Secured debts are debts in which you have offered something else as a security in case you cannot pay back your loan, such as your home or your car. In addition to signing your loan, you also sign a security agreement (a lien) that states that the lender has the right to repossess the items or property if you default on your loan.
What Are Unsecured Debts?
Unsecured debts, however, are loans in which nothing is held. They could include:
- Credit card debts, including most store credit cards
- Medical debt
- Personal loans
- Personal lines of credit
- Debts to check-cashing companies or pay-day advance companies
How Does Bankruptcy Help?
Bankruptcy will discharge your liability for most secured and unsecured debts except student loans, court-ordered payments such as child support, and certain tax debts. However, secured property is still subject to repossession if not handled properly due to your security agreement. Our bankruptcy attorneys will help you properly plan for bankruptcy so as to protect what matters most to you.
When you are dealing with large amounts of secured and unsecured debt, bankruptcy allows you the financial freedom to obtain a fresh start. Once free from things like credit card debt or personal loans, you can put your resources into taking care of non-dischargeable debts, rebuilding your credit and moving on with your life.
