Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Provides Protections

Chapter 13 bankruptcy works with the courts to consolidate, prioritize and, in some cases, reduce debts. Instead of juggling your bills and creditors, Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to make one monthly payment to your court-appointed trustee who will handle all of your creditors.

The Chapter 13 process, along with the automatic stay, may put a stop to foreclosure, repossession, lawsuits and creditor harassment.

For the duration of your repayment plan, typically 3-5 years, you should have the breathing room and protection that allow you to eliminate your debt.
