Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Overview

Chapter 13 bankruptcy is an appealing option for those who want to keep their home or who are ineligible for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Chapter 13 bankruptcy can:

  • Stop foreclosure proceedings
  • Stop creditor harassment
  • Stop wage garnishment
  • Halt pending litigation against you
  • Minimize your overall amount of debt
  • Grant you more time to repay debt

Chapter 13 bankruptcy is essentially a form of debt consolidation and repayment. All of your debt — including overdue mortgage payments and default interest, credit card debt and other debt — is consolidated and managed by a bankruptcy trustee. A realistic monthly repayment plan is established based on your income and basic obligations. One monthly payment is then made to the bankruptcy trustee over the course of 3-5 years. The bankruptcy trustee disburses this payment among your creditors in accordance with the repayment plan, allowing you to catch up and regain control of your finances.
