What is a discharge?

Submitted by admin on Sat, 09/10/2011 - 15:09
The discharge releases the debtor from personal liability for the discharged debts, and therefore prevents the creditors owed those debts from taking any action against the debtor to collect the debts. You should be aware that not all debts are dischargeable. Bankruptcy law regarding the scope of a discharge is complex, and debtors should consult legal counsel prior to filing.
