Electricity Shut Off? Chapter 7 Bankruptcy May Help

Post by Christopher Migliaccio

A Dallas, Texas law firm can assist you with everything from filing your papers to checking your bankruptcy status if you’re worried about your debt making it impossible for you to pay your utility bills this winter.

With the personal bankruptcy rate showing that more Americans are seeking to relieve their debt due to the economical upheaval, you may be wondering if an automatic stay through a Chapter 7 bankruptcy would help solve some of your immediate concerns such as keeping the lights on or the water flowing from the tap.

Instead of living in constant fear that your utilities will be shut off – and you and your family will suddenly be without water, electricity, phones, etc. – it may help to speak to an attorney about how an automatic stay in a bankruptcy filing could help in the event you’re facing a utility shut-off.

When meeting with an attorney for the first time, be certain to ask how an automatic stay will address your immediate utility bill concerns.

An automatic stay may prevent your:  

  • gas;
  • telephone;
  • electric; and
  • water from being disconnected for at least 20 days, possibly more.  

You can ask your attorney for details on your case to get a more specific timeline for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
