Louisville Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Lawyers

Kentucky and Southern Indiana Debt Consolidation Lawyers

A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is often referred to as a reorganization bankruptcy due to the fact that it takes your debts and reorganizes them into a repayment plan that will last three to five years. During that time period you will make payments to the bankruptcy trustee who will make payments to your creditors.

We can help you create an affordable repayment plan that takes your income into consideration. We can negotiate certain debts down to where you will only be paying a percentage of that debt. The goal of the repayment plan is for you to succeed with it over that three to five year period and to emerge debt free.

Getting My Repoed Car Back By Filing Bankruptcy: Everyone knows that if you do not make your car or truck payments, the creditor will send someone out to repossess the vehicle. In most states, including Kentucky and Indiana, the creditor can exercise what is called "self-help." This means that the creditor need not file any type of legal proceeding with a court, but rather, can simply hire some thug to sneak over to your house in the middle of the night, hot wire your car and drive it off. So you could get up in the morning for work and find your car gone. They can even come to your place of employment and swipe your car. The worst part is they don't even have to let you know they're going to do it. More
