Wisconsin Residents Face Insolvency

Due to the debt problems caused by COVID-19, household debts such as car notes, mortgages, credit cards, and medical bills have been proving more difficult to repay. Therefore, Wisconsin residents are facing “insolvency” at a higher pace.  We understand that “insolvent” is not a term that clients often use. However, because it may arise during a conversation with your bankruptcy attorney, it is helpful to understand.

What Is Insolvency?

#1 Insolvency is a financial term meaning that one is unable to pay back debts
#2 Insolvency terms can be related to both business & household/consumer debt
#3 There are many situations that have the potential to lead to this financial state
#4 Bankruptcy such as chapter 7 or chapter 13 are part of a legal process to address insolvency

Consumer Insolvency VS Bankruptcy

Consumer insolvency is a debt problem, whereas consumer bankruptcy is a debt solution. A household that is bankrupt is also insolvent, but a household who is insolvent is not bankrupt, (unless they have filed for bankruptcy). If you have tried budgeting, talking to your creditors, and every other trick in the book, it may be time to consider bankruptcy. For those who qualify, bankruptcy may restructure, reduce, or eliminate debts completely. Read Wisconsin bankruptcy success stories.

How Do I Know If I am Insolvent?

One may be insolvent when the debt load exceeds the ability to pay back debts. This is an extremely stressful situation.

• Frequently confronted with overdraft & credit card interest/fees
• You & your family are contacted frequently- with increasing pressure & threats
• Cannot pay taxes – owe money to the IRS, banks, and/or creditors
