Filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy may provide the financial relief you are looking for.
Also referred to as a wage earner’s plan, Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to use a portion of your income through a court-mandated plan to repay a portion or all of your debts. If you decide to file Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you will propose a repayment plan to your creditors where you make installment payments to your creditors over a period of three to five years. At the end of this three- to five-year period, any remaining debts you have will be discharged.
There are many benefits of filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy over filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy. For example, if you decide to file Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you can save your home from the foreclosure process. Once you decide to file, you can put a stop to any foreclosure proceedings, as long as you can continue to make your mortgage payments on time moving forward. Another benefit of filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy is that you can reschedule your secured debts, which can lower how much you owe overall.
