Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Lawyers
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy is for an individual with assets that cannot be exempted (protected) under Chapter 7 or who has a substantial income above the Bankruptcy Means Test requirement. There are other reasons to file a Chapter 13 but these are the two main reasons people file a Chapter 13 instead of a Chapter 7.
This form of bankruptcy provides the debtor a chance to eliminate their debt in very affordable installments based on their income and what they can afford for 3-5 years. By doing this it also allows the debtor to keep any non-exempt assets they may have such as cabins, boats, homes, and cars that they could not have kept or protected under a Chapter 7.
