Stop Home Foreclosure

Both Chapter 7 bankruptcy and Chapter 13 bankruptcy can stop foreclosure.

In a Chapter 13, our bankruptcy attorneys can help you obtain a repayment plan that takes place over a period of a three- to five-year timeframe. In that time, you can pay your mortgage arrears and get current on your mortgage payments.

In a Chapter 7, bankruptcy filing will stop the foreclosure process. As a homeowner, you can try a loan modification. You may have a few more months to work out your financial issues and figure out a way to keep your home.

When either type of bankruptcy is filed, an automatic stay goes into place, which prevents your lender from proceeding with the foreclosure. If you have already received a notice of entry of default, or if you are 90 days behind on your mortgage, it is time to speak with an attorney.

Stop Vehicle Repossession

Car repossession can happen as soon as missing two payments. If you file bankruptcy before the car repossession takes place, this will place an automatic stay on the debt collectors. The repossession proceedings will stop.

In a Chapter 7, you can eliminate your unsecured debt. Your car loan is a secured debt. However, when you “free up” money by not having to pay credit card payments, you can use that to pay your car loan.

In a Chapter 13, you enter into a payment plan and can cure your late payments through the plan. Another option in a Chapter 13 is the “cram down.” For a “cram down” to work, the contract between you and the lender must be more than 910 days old. In this type of plan, you negotiate to pay off the fair market value of the car, rather than the amount you owe.
