Some Reflections on the Law of Bankruptcy

Letter from 1775 proves bankruptcy is as AMERICAN AS APPLE PIE!

Check out the article written by Attorney Peter Francis Geraci titled, “Some Reflections on the Law Of Bankruptcy.” Read the article below or this article and more at https://www.infotapes.com/Articles.

A year before the Declaration of Independence, the ability to file a bankruptcy case and get a fresh start was prized in America. This letter published in Connecticut, which enacted a bankruptcy law before the American Revolution, written in 1775, proves that. https://quod.lib.umich.edu/e/evans/N05906.0001.001/1:2?rgn=div1;view=fulltext

Among the pearls of wisdom in the letter, which hold true today, there is a common theme: “such a law would be beneficial to the publick, and analogous to reason and our holy religion” In other words, the bankruptcy laws of the United States, allowed by the U.S. Constitution Article I Section 8 that Congress has enacted, are BENEFICIAL, REASONABLE, AND SIMILAR TO HOLY RELIGION!

The letter starts out:

I shall consider this Act in the

FIRST PLACE, As beneficial to the Publick,
SECONDLY, Serviceable in general to the Debtor.
THIRDLY, In general, no Disservice to the Creditor.
FOURTHLY, Agreeable to Reason, and the Genius of our holy Religion.

Other colonies, such as Virginia, were also enacting their own bankruptcy laws. When the U.S. Constitution was enacted in 1787, the power to make a nationwide bankruptcy law was given to Congress. That is why bankruptcy is a Federal statute today, available in every state and U.S. Territory.

The letter points out the evils of not having a fresh start, debtors’ prisons they had in England, advantages to business with a good bankruptcy law, and quotes the Bible, which favors and commands the forgiveness of debt in many places:

of thy Brethren, &c. thou shalt not harden thine Heart, nor shut thy Hand from thy poor Brother;

but thou shalt open thine Hand wide unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his Need, in that which he wanteth:

If thy Brother be waxen poor, &c. then thou shalt relieve him, &c. that he may live.

If, says JOB, I have seen any perish for Want of Cloathing, or any Poor without Covering; if his Loins have not blessed me, &c. then let mine Arm fall from my Shoulder-blade, and mine Arm be broken from the Bone.

Whoso hath this World’s Good, and seeth his Brother have Need, and shutteth up his Bowels of Compassion from him, how dwelleth the Love of God in him!

My little Children, let us not love in Word, neither in Tongue, but in Deed and in Truth.

When we turn over the Pages of the sacred Volume, wrote from the Mouth of our Divine Master, and there observe the sublime Sentiments of Benevolence, Compassion, Forbearance, Forgiveness of Injuries, and Enemies, &c. enforced by the most powerful Arguments drawn from Life and Death, and the same exhibited in Perfection in his own glorious Person.

Debt Surges and So Does Inflation

Geraci Law reports increase in pressure on retired workers!

Read the press release below from Geraci Law – you can read additional news @ https://www.infotapes.com/Press.

As if we can’t see it ourselves, the Federal Reserve reports that consumer debt levels increased 14% in March 2022. Credit card debt and other revolving debt increased by 21.4%.

Revolving credit, which includes credit cards, surged by 21.4%.

Food is up 10%, and gas is up 25% over a year ago. Pension payments have not increased, the stock market is down 20%, and social security payments are up only 5% or less.

At Geraci Law, we have seen this cycle before. Geraci Law is one of the oldest and largest debt relief agencies in the country, with roots going back to 1977. This data indicates that the cost of living will increasingly outstrip the ability to pay debt, in the coming months.

“It usually takes 2 years for consumers to realize they should eliminate or consolidate debt using either Chapter 7 or 13”, says Geraci Law founding member attorney Peter Francis Geraci.

“Bankruptcy filings are at a historic low, and borrowing is at a historic high, with the good feelings of a stock market bonanza all but gone.” Geraci Law is seeing an increase in Chapter 13 debt repayment plans filed by retired persons, and those approaching retirement. “Retirees and fixed income individuals are the canaries in the coal mine, the first to suffer from inflation and high debt repayments”, said Mr. Geraci.

What Bankruptcy Can Do!

No one wakes up in the morning and says, “I want to file for bankruptcy!” It does not work that way. Life happens and more often than not you are in more debt with less income. Sometimes it’s as simple as bad luck – you get into a car accident 2 days after your insurance lapses, you start a new job and are in the hospital before health insurance kicks in. There’s divorce, life circumstance – things happen.

Thankfully, we have bankruptcy as an option to deal with the debt. Filing for bankruptcy can be the fresh start and breath of fresh air you are looking for. So what can it do for you?

Gets rid of as many bills as possible
Does not affect car payments if you keep the car and continue payments
STOPS all calls and letters from bill collectors.
STOPS interest on charge cards.
CLEARS credit report except for bankruptcy listing.

Can Bankruptcy Stop Collection Agencies From Calling?

Check out this article (and more!) at https://www.infotapes.com/Articles. The answer is YES.

Yes. You can stop creditors from calling you without filing a bankruptcy. Just say “Oh, I’m glad you called, where can I send payment in full?”

If you can’t send payment in full, start sending partial payments, and they’ll stop calling.

If paying the creditor who is calling, you isn’t in your budget, you can also say “Don’t call me, I can’t pay you, you can sue me but don’t call me.” They may or may not file a lawsuit against you.

If Geraci Law files your Chapter 7, or Chapter 13 repayment plan, we provide you with your bankruptcy case #. You then give it to anyone who calls you, and you won’t hear from them again. Make sure you ask who is calling and who they represent, so you make sure they are listed on your bankruptcy petition.

If you are planning on filing a bankruptcy with Geraci Law, Keep a pen and paper to take down information on who is calling you, if they are a collection agency or the actual creditor, and the account #, because you want to make sure you list them on your bankruptcy petition. Unlisted creditors don’t get discharged, so listing all creditors you have is important.

Or worse, someone has filed a lawsuit against you or your check is being garnished. You should immediately call us to start your case. A chapter 7 can eliminate your debt or a chapter 13 will consolidate your debt into a payment you can afford. Both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 stop collection and lawsuits.

Is your mortgage or rent always late? Other payments are behind a month or more? All because you lost your income? You probably qualify for bankruptcy protection and need a fresh start to get rid of debt and start over.

What about savings? Do you have any? Are your balances not going down even though you make payments. Are you being turned down for credit? Many people file bankruptcy to help build savings. Watch our video on credit scores. You will learn that studies show bankruptcy will actually increase your credit score and that people who file bankruptcy are likely to have better future financial success. Why? Because they got rid of their debt and started over.

Are you concerned you have assets and cannot file a bankruptcy? Most people with assets can still file a bankruptcy to eliminate their debts. Think you make too much money to get rid of your debt? Chapter 13 gives you interest free repayments on your debt. Better yet, if your creditor doesn’t file a claim in your case you will receive a discharge without repaying them.

Let’s do a hypothetical: Bill and Sally have been married for 20 years. Bill recently lost his job in middle management, and is now working at half his former salary, driving a limousine. Sally had an operation, and since there was no insurance, owes $8,000 in unpaid medical bills. To supplement Bill’s income, they have been using credit cards to pay for groceries and other expenses because Sally needed 8 weeks to recover from her operation. The balances on the credit cards are now $5000, because they used the cards to supplement their lost income. Sally returned to work, but because of the medical bills and increased credit card balances, They can’t afford the credit card payments anymore. They want to know, do I qualify for bankruptcy.

Answer: Of course. Bill and Sally were hit with some bad luck. Bill lost his position in middle management and Sally’s operation forced her out of work for a month. A bankruptcy, either chapter 7 or 13, would benefit Bill and Sally because it will get rid of all their unsecured debt and they will be able to start saving now that Sally is back to work.

Does any of this sound familiar? If it does, call right now to get your options.

But let’s do one more. Same situation with Bill and Sally, but this time Bill and Sally are 6 months behind on the house. Bill and Sally received foreclosure paperwork and now they need to save the house.

Answer: Chapter 13 will stop the foreclosure and let Bill and Sally repay the past due amounts over time. Better yet, the unsecured debts will be paid interest fee. When the plan is complete Bill and Sally will likely have improved credit for making timely payment in their chapter 13, a MUCH BETTER budget, and no debt.

Consumer Debt is $15.6 TRILLION!

Check out the article posted at CNBC titled, “Consumer debt totals $15.6 trillion in 2021, a record-breaking increase,” @ Consumer Debt.

It’s mortgage debt, car debt and credit card debt. Take a look at your finances, are you struggling to pay OFF minimums? Break the cycle of paying the minimum payments only to use the credit again because your cash is gone.

Inflation is hitting everyone’s budget, interest rates on said minimum payments will most likely INCREASE later this year. Filing a bankruptcy can help YOU gain control back of your finances.

The best thing about Geraci Law – we will give you our best opinion. If bankruptcy makes sense, we’ll work WITH you to accomplish your goals. If bankruptcy is not your best option, we’ll help you come up with other options if we can. It’s as simple as a phone call.
