I about 6 years ago, I had a few instances where my payment posted a couple of days late and it ended up on my credit report. I contacted those companies and they were removed in 30 days or less.
My credit score is currently 789.
As for filing bankruptcy, I'd highly recommend against it, if at all possible. She should be able to contact the individual companies and ask for a reduced rate in order to pay off her bills. The trade off is that she won't be able to use the cards during that time. But that's a far better alternative to bankruptcy, which will follow her around for a minimum of 10 years (it's no longer 7).
Good luck.

This.
Oh, and thanks for the correction on the bankruptcy term -- forgot they changed that in that abortion of a bankruptcy bill passed a few years ago.
Talk about shitty legislation ... sheesh.
