No one files bankruptcy frivolously or without having endured many sleepless nights searching for an alternative. But sometimes, there simply is no other way out of debt.
Any number of things can force a person into bankruptcy – unemployment, high medical bills, household emergencies and more. Even those with the best intentions of paying off their debt a little every month, come to realize they could lose their car, their home or that their debt could outlive them. That’s when filing bankruptcy becomes the only way to experience a new financial beginning.
