Re: Bankruptcy - employment agreement related judgement

You would be eligible to seek complete relief for this type of debt (called "discharging" the debt in bankruptcy terminolgy) by filing either chapter 7 or chapter 13. I recommend most people file under chapter 7 because it is cheaper and only lasts about 5 months. Chapter 13 will require you to repay a portion of your debts and be in a plan of reorganization for 3 to 5 years. Please feel free to call me to discuss this in more detail. ph. (800) 303-0720
