CHAPTER 13 BANKRUPTCY

Being under tremendous debt, and pressure from creditors, can take a toll on your quality of life. If you are struggling to get ahead of your debts, but don’t qualify for liquidation or Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Upland, Chapter 13 may be right for you. This is a type of bankruptcy that offers a kind of “soft landing” to those who still have a decent income but can’t keep up with the pressure and expected timelines of their lenders. Unlike Chapter 7, which discharges many debts, but can also compromise assets, Chapter 13 allows for a structured repayment plan. Under this plan, as supervised by your bankruptcy judge and Chapter 13 Trustee, you can keep assets like your home and vehicles, while paying down your debts.
