What is Chapter 7 vs Chapter 13 bankruptcy?
Quick Answer
Chapter 7 liquidates assets and discharges unsecured debt in 3–4 months, staying on your credit report 10 years. Chapter 13 creates a 3–5 year repayment plan and stays 7 years — the choice usually depends on income and whether you want to keep a house.
