Bankruptcy Means Test Attorneys in Watertown
Though the bankruptcy laws have changed in the past few years, it is still possible for most people to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection. There are a number of issues that must be addressed before it can be determined if you qualify.
At Alford & Bertrand, LLC, a Boston bankruptcy law firm, our lawyers have years of experience handling all types of bankruptcy issues, including helping clients understand bankruptcy qualification. We can also take the time to explain how debt discharge works under a Chapter 7 and if Chapter 13 may be a better option.

Your Gross Income
In each part of the country, there is a maximum income you can have in order to qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Since Chapter 7 is governed by state laws, there is a set gross income in Massachusetts that is dependent on the size of your family and the number of wage earners. Our firm can meet with you, assess your specific situation and determine if your gross income may result in your qualification for Chapter 7.
Good Faith Filing
If your income is in excess of the amount allowable for filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy or if you have too much excess income after paying for your monthly necessities such as rent, food, heat, and clothing we will be able to determine if you qualify for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing. Most people who do not qualify for Chapter 7 still qualify for Chapter 13.
