The most obvious disadvantage of filing for bankruptcy is that it will ruin your credit for at least 7-10 years. Some other disadvantages include:
* Losing credit cards
* Losing non-essential possessions
* Inability to obtain a mortgage for some time
* Embarrassment
* Not all debt will be discharged
Because of all those reasons, it is really important to take that into consideration before filing!
