About Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, often referred to as "clean slate" or "fresh start" bankruptcy, allows you to keep your assets by claiming an exemption on everything you own. Turner Vaught has qualified Myrtle Beach bankruptcy attorneys, Charleston bankruptcy attorneys and Columbia bankruptcy attorneys with experience in handling Chapter 7 cases. In the past calendar year, approximately 49% of non-business related bankruptcy filings in South Carolina were filed under Chapter 7 protection.
Bankruptcy cases under Chapter 7 involve a liquidation of the debtor's assets to pay creditors. The individual debtor's ultimate goal in a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy filing is a discharge of the debts. Generally, all of the debtor's nonexempt property is collected by the Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Trustee, who liquidates and distributes the proceeds to the Chapter 7 Bankruptcy creditors. Exempt assets claimed by the debtor in a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy are retained for a fresh start.
With the many rules, regulations and exemptions which apply to Chapter 7, it is important to hire qualified and knowledgeable bankruptcy attorneys in Columbia, Charleston, Myrtle Beach and throughout South Carolina. At Turner Vaught, we have bankruptcy attorneys conveniently located throughout South Carolina in order to serve all of your Chapter 7 needs.

About Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, often referred to as "wage-earner" bankruptcy, allows you to usually keep your property, but you must earn wages or have a source of regular income, not have more than a certain amount of debt, and agree to pay part of your income to your creditors. With three locations throughout South Carolina, Turner Vaught has qualified Chapter 13 Myrtle Beach bankruptcy attorneys, Chapter 13 Charleston bankruptcy attorneys and Chapter 13 Columbia bankruptcy attorneys who can help.
In the past year, approximately 51% of South Carolina non-business Bankruptcy filings have been under Chapter 13 Bankruptcy protection. Bankruptcy cases under Chapter 13 are limited to individuals with regular income that meet certain debt limits. The individual debtor's goal in filing a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy case is to keep assets rather than liquidation. In a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy case, the debtor is allowed to keep both exempt and nonexempt property in exchange for making payments pursuant to a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy plan where the Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Trustee distributes payments to creditors.
Hiring a knowledgeable Chapter 13 South Carolina bankruptcy attorney is imperative with the ever-changing rules, regulations and exemptions which apply to bankruptcy filings under Chapter 13. With three offices throughout South Carolina, Turner Vaught is conveniently located to serve your Chapter 13 bankruptcy needs.
