Georgia Bankruptcy Alternatives

If you’re thinking about filing bankruptcy in Georgia, make sure you know all your options before you file. An experienced bankruptcy attorney can review the many Georgia bankruptcy alternatives you may want to consider and help determine if bankruptcy is right for you.

Simply doing nothing is the easiest bankruptcy alternative; however, it is also one of the riskiest. If you are unemployed or have a small income, you may be seen as judgment, or collection, proof. This means that you have no assets to offer your creditors if they attempt to sue you. As a result, your creditors may opt to write off your debt instead of attempting to collect it. Although you may be judgment proof right now, it’s important to know that, should your financial situation improve, your creditors can attempt to collect—even if the debt was written off earlier.

If you do not want to wait for your creditors to write off your debt, a second Georgia bankruptcy alternative is to contact them to discuss your financial situation. Oftentimes, creditors will work with you to reduce interest rates, remove late charges, or extend your payment period.

If you are already behind on your payments, you may be hesitant to contact your creditors on your own. Therefore, you may want to receive help from a credit counseling agency. These non-profit organizations work with creditors to create a repayment plan that fits your budget and, in many cases, can reduce the amount you pay as well as the time it takes to repay your debts.

Because credit counseling can have a negative effect on your credit score, you may consider obtaining a debt consolidation loan as an alternative to bankruptcy. Although this may seem like a good idea at first, it can lead to further problems. In many cases, individuals obtain these large loans to pay off creditors, but once they’re paid off, proceed to charge them back up. If this happens, you’re left with a huge loan payment as well as multiple payments to your creditors.

Before you make a decision regarding your Georgia bankruptcy alternative, you should first obtain legal counsel. An experienced bankruptcy attorney can review all of your options and help you decide whether bankruptcy is right for you.
