Steiden Law Offices | Kentucky

Kentucky is known as a place to dream big and enjoy life. It is home to many iconic American people, brands and pastimes, including the Kentucky Derby, Jack Daniels, the Hatfield's (and the McCoys), Kentucky basketball, James Bowie, Jefferson Davis, George Clooney, Johnny Depp, Ashley Judd and Muhammad Ali.

With such an impressive history, Kentucky will always be a place for innovators, creators, business people and leaders. This has led many individuals to take financial risks in order to develop their ideas or grow their business. Although many have succeeded, there are many more that did not achieve the success that they set out for. This problem can be compounded if this failed attempt includes taking on large amounts of debt that are difficult to pay back.

Bankruptcy Practice Areas

Steiden Law Offices focuses primarily on two areas of bankruptcy, Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. Each has its own set of rules and requirements, so understanding the basics components of the two will allow you to choose the right one for your personal situation.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy in Kentucky

Commonly referred to as the "liquidation" form of bankruptcy, Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a way to discharge many of your debts through asset sales. This filing will require a person's or company's (partnership, corporation or other business entity) assets to be liquidated, with a trustee overseeing this process. The trustee will sell the liquidated assets in order to pay off debt your have incurred. This will allow you to satisfy your creditor requirements so that you can start over and have a new opportunity to achieve success

Filing for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy in Kentucky

As opposed to liquidating, a Covington Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing allows you to reorganize or restructure your debt. Chapter 13 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code enables individuals and businesses with regular income to hold on to their property and pay off some or all of their debts over a three to five year payment period. This chapter is an alternative for those individuals whose income is too high to qualify for filing under Chapter 7, or who need to protect non-exempt assets.
