Differences Between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, considered a "liquidation" bankruptcy, will generally wipe the slate clean of the majority of your debts. Some exceptions include student loans, child support obligations and taxes. Chapter 13 Bankruptcy is designed as a repayment method, commonly lasting from 3 to 5 years. Generally, Chapter 13 Bankruptcy is used to save a house from a mortgage foreclosure or because a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy was filed in the last 8 years.
Our lawyers will educate you about the bankruptcy process and the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure. We will answer your questions and address your concerns.
