Only a bankruptcy attorney who is properly licensed in your state can answer that question after reviewing your situation.
In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, most (but not all) debt is discharged. (the exceptions include many student loans, tax debts, child support and alimony, etc). Whether you want to go this route, and even whether you qualify, will depend on a host of factors including your ability to repay the debt, thanks to the Bankrupty Reform Act. (read: Credit Card companies bought off Congress to make it more expensive and difficult to file bankruptcy).
Chapter 13 bankruptcy assumes you have a regular source of income from which you can pay a portion of your debt over a period of 3 to 5 years. Chapter 13 bankruptcies also discharge the portion of debt which is not repaid, and have some other advantages, but that's beyond the scope of this answer.
Contact a bankruptcy attorney in your area for more information. If you don't know one, contact your local or state bar association for a referral

Chapter 7, if you can qualify. Talk to a bankruptcy attorney. They need to know the details of your situation.
