Synopsis

Stop creditors. Get more time to pay.

Some of Chapter 13 bankruptcy’s other features include allowing filers to:

keep all property
avoid foreclosure and vehicle repossession
pay the fair market value for a car, and
stop lawsuits, wage garnishments, and bank levies.

This revised edition covers all the latest changes in bankruptcy and is eco-friendly—we’ve moved many tables and forms online!
