Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
If you have stable and regular income and your debts fall within federal guidelines, a Chapter 13 bankruptcy may allow you to keep assets such as your home or car while you enter a repayment plan. Filing for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy will halt any foreclosure proceedings and collections efforts allowing you time catch up on payments. The bankruptcy court will determine a reasonable monthly debt payment amount based on its evaluation of your household budget. Repayment plans typically take 3-5 years to complete and the bankruptcy stays on your credit for 7 years.
Some other debt help or debt relief alternatives to Chapter 13 Bankruptcy are:
- Debt Settlement
- Debt Negotiation
- Credit Card Debt
- Debt Management
- Debt Consolidation Program
- Consumer Credit Counseling
- Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
