BANKRUPTCY CAN HELP
STOP WAGE GARNISHMENTS
WIPE OUT DEBT
PREVENT FORCLOSURE
CHAPTER 7 BANKRUPTCY ATTORNEY
Bankruptcy under Chapter 7 is known as “liquidation.” Under Chapter 7, my clients usually keep all or most of their property and/or home equity through California’s generous exemptions. If filing for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy makes legal and practical sense for you, we will prepare your petition and schedules and file them with the bankruptcy court. At this point, the automatic stay will go into effect.
Harassing creditor calls, foreclosure activity and wage garnishments stop almost immediately. Any further communications from your creditors will have to go through our office.
The fact is, you can go through Chapter 7, get most of your debt wiped out within six months and begin rebuilding your credit. You don’t have to tackle the problem on your own.
The goal of chapter 7 in California is to discharge, or wipe out the mountain of debt that is preventing you from moving forward with your life. It is most common form of consumer bankruptcy. Debt you can eliminate through Chapter 7 include:
- Credit cards
- Personal loans
- Bank Levies
- Leases
- Mortgage deficiencies
- Medical bills
- Judgments
- Certain tax obligations
If you are unemployed as the result of COVID-19, or if you have massive medical bills or credit card debt, contact a Pasadena Bankruptcy attorney for a free consultation today!
CHAPTER 13 BANKRUPTCY ATTORNEY
Bankruptcy under Chapter 13 is commonly referred to as the “wage earner plan.” You must have a reliable source of income to repay some portion of your debt.
Chapter 13 in California allows our clients to reorganize their debt to repay all or a portion of their credit cards, taxes and past due mortgage and vehicle payments over a 3 to 5 year period. Although this option takes longer than Chapter 7, there are several advantages:
- Stop foreclosure proceedings and cure delinquent payments
- Lower and extend payments for secured debts
- Protect co-signers from creditors
- The court trustee distributes payments, so you don’t have to deal with the creditors
- Debt remaining after all plan payments are made are discharged
The amount of your payments depends on how much you earn, your disposable income and the amount of non-exempt property. We can help you determine if you are eligible for Chapter 13 by assessing the amount of secured and unsecured debt.
FEDERAL STUDENT LOAN LAWYER
The government chooses which organization servicers your loan when you take out your first federal student loans. The vast majority of Federal Student Loans are serviced by one of these organizations:
- FedLoan Servicing
- Cornerstone
- HESC
- Granite State
- Great Lakes
- OSLA
- Nelnet
- MOHELA
- Navient
If you have tried working out payment arrangements or cannot make the payments you were assigned, we can help.
There are a variety of options available to help you deal with your student loan debt, from rehabilitation and consolidation to repayment options. We can analyze your situation and assess which options can lower your monthly payments, stop wage garnishment, recover from IRS tax intercepts, and more.
