Bankruptcy is a legal process that can provide relief from overwhelming debt. It can help you eliminate or restructure debt, stop creditor harassment, and regain control of your financial future in California.

The two primary types for individuals are Chapter 7 (liquidation) and Chapter 13 (restructuring). Chapter 7 can discharge unsecured debt, while Chapter 13 creates a repayment plan.
