Chapter 13: A Reorganization, Payment Plan and Wage Earner Bankruptcy
A Chapter 13 bankruptcy case concerns a proposed financial reorganization of your debts through a manageable monthly payment plan, as determined through your bankruptcy petition, and approved by the bankruptcy court. This plan is principally designed for debtors with a steady and sufficient income, for instance, for employees paid with an hourly income, or fixed wage workers.
A Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you to catch up on obligations, such as support obligations (spousal and child), tax obligations, and mortgage and car arrearages over a three- to five-year period without interests or penalties accruing. At the end of the repayment plan the remainder of your unsecured debt will be discharged. Unsecured debts include:
- Credit card debts
- Medical debt
- Debts to other individuals
I am here as your advocate and will make certain you have the information necessary to make an informed decision regarding your financial situation. I am committed to providing personalized attention to each of my clients, and fully understand the importance of an attorney who is well-informed and familiar with their clients' situations.
