Chapter 13 Bankruptcy: Repay Your Debts

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Are you behind on your mortgage, taxes or other bills? Are creditors threatening foreclosure or repossession? If you fear that you may lose property, or if you have overwhelming debts that can't be eliminated in Chapter 7 bankruptcy, Chapter 13 may offer a solution. It lets you reorganize your debts into a repayment plan you can afford -- and keep your house, car and other property. The 6th edition is completely revised and updated -- it provides the latest legal documents and current bankruptcy-exemption laws for all 50 states. Whether you work with a lawyer or file on your own, you'll find the information you need to take charge of your debts in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy.
