Regardless of the chapter, the initial bankruptcy hearings take place in downtown Akron, but are not held at the Federal Courthouse.  Chapter 7 hearings take place at the trustee hearing room at 76 S. Main Street, Atrium Level #120, Akron, Ohio 44308, in the Orangerie Mall.  Chapter 13 hearings take place in the Chapter 13 Trustee’s office, PNC Center, One Cascade Plaza, 20th Floor, Akron, Ohio 44308.

What documents are needed at the hearing?  The petitioner must have a valid photo ID and social security card.  Other documents must either be brought to the hearing or sent to the trustee prior to the hearing.  These hearings will not go forward without these documents.

Barberton Bankruptcy Attorney Handles Both Chapter 7 And 13 

 

Chapter 7 is a quicker process overall, resulting in a discharge of personal debts in exchange for the liquidation of all non-exempt assets.  In many instances, all the assets are exempt, which means the petitioner would not lose anything to the trustee.  If the petitioner has a lot of non-exempt assets, Chapter 13 may be a better option.

Chapter 13 takes at least three to five years to complete, involving repayment of a portion of the debts in exchange for keeping non-exempt assets and receiving a broader discharge of debt than is available under Chapter 7.  In many instances, a higher income or large amount of non-exempt assets leads to filing under this chapter.
