Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, often referred to as liquidation or fresh start bankruptcy, can provide a new financial beginning for those who find themselves overwhelmed by debt with no realistic expectation of ever being able to pay their creditors.
Creditors, especially credit card companies, have become increasingly aggressive in their efforts to collect on overdue balances.
Whatever the reason for the financial hardship: job loss, unexpected medical expenses, divorce, business failure, or just an accumulation of poor financial decisions.

Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be your best option if you are facing foreclosure or vehicle repossession.
This may also be a solution for unsecured and secured debt of sole proprietorships that meet the criteria set by the Bankruptcy Code.
This option is currently limited to cases where unsecured debts are less than $360,475 and secured debts are less than $1,081,400, adjusted periodically to reflect changes in the consumer price index.
Because all of the debts and assets of a sole proprietorship are owned by that one person, they are considered debts and assets of the individual owner and thus possibly eligible for Chapter 13 filing.

The age of the debtor is not listed on the bankruptcy petition so there are no real statistics on this subject - but it seems to be a growing trend.
Seniors contemplate bankruptcy primarily to deal with out of control credit card debt.
Because the income has been reduced due to loss of a job, reduction on investment values or medical problems - people will turn to their credit cards to make up the difference.
