Bankruptcy is the term given when you are unable to pay your debts.
It is a decision made by you or your creditor/s, influenced by the total amount of debt you have and your inability to meet the payments.
Being chased by creditors when you have no money can be extremely stressful. The decision to file for bankruptcy should not be made solely to stop demanding creditors. It is something that needs a lot of thought and also, some debts cannot be discharged in bankruptcy. You would be best to discuss your situation with a debt advisor, before making any decisions.
Depending on your circumstances, bankruptcy may or may not be right for you. The decision as to whether and when to file a bankruptcy petition should be based upon the facts of your individual case.
Sometimes when people find themselves facing serious debt problems bankruptcy may seem like the only way out. This is not always the case.
People with assets and / or professional jobs (or any other special circumstances) may wish to avoid bankruptcy. There are other options available but you should explore all these options carefully before making any decisions.
You may be able to propose a different Insolvency solution such as an IVA or a more informal solution such as a Debt Management Plan, which might help you avoid bankuptcy.
