Bankruptcy law offers a way for individuals to reduce or eliminate certain debts. In addition, it can provide a timeline for repayment of non-dischargeable debts over time. Further, bankruptcy permits individuals and organizations to repay secured debts, such as real estate and vehicles pledged as collateral, on more favorable terms.
