Bankruptcy clears in 10 years, too. Anything negative on the report does, including judgements.
Something to keep in mind. In many cases, if there are a lot of judgements, that can be seen as worse or at least as bad as a bankruptcy. A Chapter 11, where the person is requesting the opportunity to pay off bills, actually shows they were at least being responsible. Letting judgements go into write-offs, shows differently.
Either way, the OP needs to contact a bankruptcy lawer. Contemplating bankruptcy is a huge, huge decision.
