South Dakota saw a 77.3% decrease in the total bankruptcy filings from 2005 to 2006. Of course behind this drop was the new bankruptcy laws which made qualifying for Chapter 7 more difficult, consumer credit counseling mandatory, and a slew of other negative effects associated with declaring. Due to these changes, many people in South Dakota instead start seeking out the assistance of debt management companies.
South Dakota’s bankruptcy laws (as well as the rest of the country) were radically altered much to the chagrin of the state’s credit card industry. Now, much to the dismay of overwhelmed debtors, filing bankruptcy is more expensive and a much more difficult task to accomplish.

Debtors who earn more than the median income in their state can now be pushed into Chapter 13 bankruptcy in the event that they fail to pass the means test. Detailed below is South Dakota’s median income information as of 2006:
