Dallas Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Attorney
A Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you the opportunity to pay off your debts through a court-approved payment plan over a period of three to five years. The benefit received from filing a Chapter 13 bankruptcy petition is that you can keep all of your nonexempt property (typically a home and car). One of the additional benefits of a Chapter 13 bankruptcy is that interest and late fees do not accrue while you are under the protection of Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
A common scenario in which you might utilize the Chapter 13 option is when you are behind on mortgage payments. Chapter 13 bankruptcy will stop a house foreclosure proceeding and give you the right to pay back the past due payments over a period of up to 60 months. As part of the payment plan, you will be required to pay back a percentage, or all, of the unsecured debt. Upon completion of the plan, you will then receive a discharge of debts and will be able to keep your property.
The Chapter 13 bankruptcy, or wage earner bankruptcy, is designed for people who have a steady income and significant equity in their home, have filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy within the past seven years, or have too much income to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing allows you to keep all your assets and stop home foreclosures while you reorganize your debt and work out a payment plan with a bankruptcy trustee.
Let us help you through these difficult times.
Filing a Chapter 13 bankruptcy could be a viable option for you if you are experiencing financial difficulties and are concerned about losing your home, car or other valuable property. Contact our office by phone at 214-749-7777 to arrange for your free 30-minute initial consultation.
