Can you file bankruptcy after you have consolidated most of your debt?

no you can not That answer is incorrect. Whether you can file a bankruptcy case and under which Chapter you can file needs to be evaluated under the terms of Bankruptcy code. Whether or not a particular debt is dischargeable needs to be evaluated under the terms of the Bankruptcy code. Consult an attorney. This is serious business. Do not rely on answers by unidentified people without information about their credentials or the basis of their opinion. That goes for people you meet at cocktail parties or the ball game. Consult an attorney.

If you file bankruptcy?

What happens if you file bankruptcy differs depending on what chapter of bankruptcy you or your business decides to file under. The most common form of bankruptcy for the individual is Chapter 7. Under Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the banks may liquidate property and assets-except things that are explicitly protected. After this, most debts are forgiven-but not all, as certain debts do not qualify. Your credit score will then be severely damaged by the filing, but you will be free to slowly bring it back up as you will not be suffocated by debt. The article below goes into further detail on the process of bankruptcy.


If you file business bankruptcy do you also file personal bankruptcy?

I suppose you could, but even if you did manage to get the financing together to open another business, any profits from it would be subject to seizure by the court and the bankruptcy trustee to pay off the bankruptcy judgement. There is no bankruptcy "judgment." If the bankruptcy is over and you have your discharge, you can open a business, and any money you make is yours. Providing the first bankuptcy is discharged.
