Escondido Credit Card Debt Lawyer
There are a number of misconceptions about credit card debt and bankruptcy. For instance, many people think that after filing for bankruptcy they will never be able to get another credit card or establish credit.

Credit Card Debt And Bankruptcy
Credit card debt is most often considered an unsecured debt, meaning that it can be discharged in a bankruptcy. After a bankruptcy, you can begin to rebuild your credit immediately. In fact, many people are able to get a credit card within a year after filing. We recommend the use of a secured credit card in order to quickly re-establish credit.
If you have secured debt, the debt must be reaffirmed if you want to retain the security. This includes most debts secured by personal property.
