Chapter 13 Bankruptcy In NY

Who Files a Chapter 13?

There are many reasons you would want to file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Chapter 13 can help you pay back mortgage arrears, property taxes, or income taxes as well as restructure your car loan. If your household income is over the state median income for your household size, you would also look to a Chapter 13 bankruptcy to give you your fresh start. We can help you assess your current situation to determine whether a Chapter 13 bankruptcy is right for you.

Establishing a Payment Plan

When you file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you make a monthly payment to a bankruptcy trustee and pay back a percent of your debt over a 3- to 5-year period. The percent you pay back is based on your specific situation but is typically less than 100%. In fact, most of our clients pay back less than 40% of their debt. The rest of the dischargeable debt gets wiped away at the end of the bankruptcy. We understand how intimidating this aspect of the process can be and the biggest concern is, “What if I can’t afford the payment?” There are many factors that go into determining the monthly payment to the trustee, and we will let you know what you could change to reduce that payment. Together, we’ll assess your needs and create a manageable payment plan that enables you to pay back your debts comfortably.
