NORCROSS, GA, June 21, 2013 (Press-News.org) There has not been much a of decline in bankruptcy filings this spring with 462 Chapter 13 and Chapter 7 filings in the Chattanooga area alone for the month of March. Tennessee continues to lead the nation in filings with single digit declines so far this year. In Tennessee, there are 6.7 filings per 1000 people which put them at number one in the nation followed by Georgia, Alabama and Illinois.
Overall, there has been a national decline in bankruptcy filings due to economic improvement. There are several areas of the United States that are seeing a slower recovery and Tennessee is one of them.
Chapter 13 and Chapter 7 Chattanooga bankruptcy filings are distinctly different. Chapter 13 filings are intended to provide a consumer with the option to retain their assets while their debt is restructured to be paid in a repayment plan over up to five years. A Chapter 7 bankruptcy involves the selling of a consumer's assets to pay off the debt. A professional Chattanooga bankruptcy attorney can evaluate your situation and offer guidance as to which method would suit your needs.
There are many documents concerning your current economic situation and assets that should be provided to your Chattanooga bankruptcy attorney to successfully file for bankruptcy which includes:
- a recent credit report
- information on any debtors including collection agencies
- a detailed list of current personal property
- information on real property that you may hold
- three years of income tax records
- your current earnings
Once your attorney receives this information they can create a profile of your economic situation that will allow them to determine if bankruptcy is the best solution for you. If bankruptcy is a viable solution, they will be able to explain whether your bankruptcy should be filed under Chapter 13 or Chapter 7.
The nation as a whole is seeing an improvement economically and lower bankruptcy rates are an indicator of that trend. Some states, such as California and Nevada, have shown a 30% decline in filings this past year. Chattanooga is taking longer, but with continued improvement filings should decrease. March is often the highest month for filings.
Hiring a professional legal representative, such as a Chattanooga bankruptcy attorney, should be done with care. It is imperative that you hire an attorney with experience in bankruptcy filings and a complete understanding of Chattanooga bankruptcy law.

Writing Tips from Prompt Proofing - Punctuate with Care!
2013-06-21
Yes, punctuation really does matter - consider the following:
"Let's eat, Grandma!"
as opposed to
"Let's eat Grandma!" (Oh, those adorable little cannibals!)
Commas, semicolons and periods give us natural pauses and are there for a very good reason. Used correctly, they make sentences more readable - used incorrectly, they make for frustrating reading and possible misunderstandings.
Commas can serve different purposes but they frequently separate lists and clauses:
In front of her was an array of precious jewels that would dazzle the ...

Researchers identify 'master coordinator' for aortic rupture
2013-06-20
Every year, more than 16,000 Americans die as a result of what's known as an "aortic dissection" — a catastrophic rupture of the aorta, the body's largest artery. Once thought to be a simple structural failure, aortic dissection is now understood to be caused by an inflammatory process that weakens the artery's walls.
University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston researchers have been at the forefront of understanding this process. In earlier studies they linked the blood-pressure-regulating molecule, angiotensin II, to the immune signaling protein IL6, which they ...
