What To Know About Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Congress enacted the bankruptcy laws to give financially pressed people the opportunity to re-group and start again. If you are behind on your mortgage or having trouble paying your other bills, you have options.
A Chapter 13 or Chapter 7 bankruptcy can lift your debt burden while allowing you to keep most or all of your property. You can get financial relief and the opportunity to make a fresh financial start.

Reducing Your Debts, Saving Your Home
An attorney at our firm can review your financial situation and discuss your options. These include debt relief through Chapter 13 and Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
With Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the main focus is typically on saving your house that is in foreclosure or otherwise delinquent in mortgage payments. In a Chapter 13, you can keep your house, your retirement accounts and all of your personal property and assets. Your mortgage arrears and a portion of your other debts are rolled into a 3- to 5-year court-monitored repayment plan, based upon your income and what you are able to pay. At the end of that period any remaining unpaid debts can usually be discharged, provided you have met all plan payments and other requirements.
