In a nutshell, bankruptcy is the state in which a person or organization cannot repay the debts owed to others.
Is Bankruptcy morally wrong?
No shame should be felt in considering bankruptcy. Bankruptcy allows a party to rise out of the mire of debt for the rest of your life.

One year after filing bankruptcy, your credit score can gain half or more of what it lost because of the bankruptcy.

Debt consolidation or reduction does not change how the creditors report and can actually do damage for longer than a bankruptcy can.

As part of the typical divorce decree, spouses are responsible 50-50 for a number of debts and other debts are assigned solely to one of the spouses.

Do I have to list all property?
Under bankruptcy law, individuals are required by law to disclose all his estate, including potential money owed to him.
