Securing financial breathing room with Chapter 13
Excessive debt is not something that happens only to those who have lost their sources of income. Many different scenarios can lead otherwise financially sound individuals and families into dire economic straits. Serious illness or injury and divorce, or temporary job loss or layoff, are just a few of the scenarios that can wreak financial havoc on families and individuals who may still have reasonable or even substantive sources of income.
Often in these situations what is needed is not an immediate liquidation of debt like in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, but, rather, people need the breathing room to catch up on where they have fallen behind. Chapter 13 bankruptcy provides a three year to five-year repayment plan that is based on your expenses and income, which is designed to help you catch up on arrears and to discharge certain debt after you pay what you can for this time period.
This is especially useful when your home is threatened with foreclosure. The automatic stay that is part of Chapter 13 bankruptcy puts a halt to the foreclosure proceedings and the repayment plan allows you to become current on your mortgage over a period of many months and possibly years. The experienced bankruptcy attorneys at Aho Law Office, P.A. have also used chapter 13 bankruptcies to lower the interest rate on car loans and even eliminate a second mortgage on the debtor’s house.
