Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Florida

Your son may/may not be able to avoid the $6000 debt. I would need more facts to make that determination. It appears that your son would need to petition for a Chapter 7. The bankruptcy would cancel the bills and they will be forever forgiven. Attorneys charge anywhere from $1500-2000 for it and your son would be responsible for the $299 filing fee.
