Consumer Bankruptcy
Individual consumers face several financial challenges that are completely out of their control. Due to current economic factors such as prolonged unemployment, layoffs, and reductions in income, the number of consumer bankruptcies is still on the rise. Many consumers will do anything they can to delay or avoid filing for a bankruptcy, including liquidating assets that could be protected in a bankruptcy, such as a 401K or other exempt retirement account.
