Frequently Asked Questions
What are the income limits for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Wisconsin?
To qualify for Chapter 7 in Wisconsin you must pass the means test which compares your income to the median income for a household of your size in the state.

What property can I keep in a Wisconsin bankruptcy?
Wisconsin uses its own state exemption system rather than federal exemptions. You can protect up to $75,000 of equity in your home under the homestead exemption. Other exemptions include up to $4,000 in a motor vehicle and up to $12,000 in household goods and personal property.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Wisconsin?
