Bankruptcy records

Bankruptcy records are a result of an individual or company filing for bankruptcy. This means that the individual or company has recognized that the income they are earning is not enough to meet their financial obligations.

There are two kinds of bankruptcy in the United States. The first is liquidation, where all your assets are sold off, and the second is reorganization, where you file for a new payment plan to address your financial obligations. Filing for bankruptcy means that you are admitting that you can no longer turn your losses into profits and as a consequence, you need to be freed from further payment of debts.
