Learn about Chapter 13 bankruptcy:

  • Debt restructuring: When you file Chapter 13 bankruptcy, we will help you create a three- to five-year payment plan to discharge your debts. You only pay what you can afford – basically, in exchange for what you have left-over after you pay your reasonable living expenses, you can discharge up to $360,475. Since many of us have little left after we pay our expenses, you may pay a very small percentage to your creditors, if anything, and still get relief from your debts. At the end of the plan, your remaining dischargeable debts will be wiped clean.

  • Differences between Chapter 13 bankruptcy and debt consolidation: Chapter 13 bankruptcy differs from so-called debt consolidation plans in that it offers you the full protection of U.S. bankruptcy laws – importantly, no creditor can sue you or otherwise harass you just because they do not want to be part of your plan. If you satisfy the Chapter 13 requirements, creditors have no choice but to be bound by your plan.

  • Second mortgage lien stripping: In some cases, liens can be stripped from second mortgages when you file Chapter 13 bankruptcy.

We understand the full range of bankruptcy options you have at your disposal. If you do not have significant assets you need to protect, you may want to consider Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If you have more than $360,475 in unsecured debt and more than $1,081,400 in secured debts, Chapter 11 bankruptcy may be an option for you.
