Discharging Debt in Jacksonville
What is debt discharge?
The discharging of debt is a legal term that refers to a court order releasing you from legal responsibility for certain debts. Not all debts can be discharged. For example, some taxes, IRS debt, child support payments, alimony and student loans do not normally qualify in the debt discharge process.

How do you get a debt discharge?
Several forms of bankruptcy result in a discharge of debt. In bankruptcy, any qualified debt that you have incurred prior to filing for bankruptcy will be discharged when all the steps of the bankruptcy process are completed. In Chapter 7, this can happen within months after filing whereas with Chapter 13 this normally occurs following several years.
