Kansas Bankruptcy Statistics

Due to the changes in the bankruptcy laws that were implemented effective October 2005, Kansas saw a significant reduction in the number of personal bankruptcy filings in 2006. Overall the number of filings between 2005 and 2006 decreased by 72.3 percent. Part of this has to do with the fact that qualifying for Chapter 7 bankruptcy was made more difficult, particularly for higher income debtors.
