PARTIs Chapter 13 Right for You?
CHAPTERHow Chapter 13 Works

Chances are good that youve picked up this book because your debts have become overwhelming. Maybe youre facing foreclosure on your home or repossession of your car. Or perhaps youre a high-income earner whose debts have grown beyond your ability to repay them. If so, Chapter 13 can help.

If youre like many, you might prefer to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcythe chapter individuals file most frequently. Not only is Chapter 7 over in a matter of months, but filers dont repay creditors in a repayment plan.

But, not everyone qualifies for Chapter 7. And Chapter 13 offers benefits that Chapter 7 doesntsome of which are so helpful that people who qualify for Chapter 7 sometimes choose Chapter 13 instead.

For instance, Chapter 13 allows a debtor to repay obligations over time, and often at a discount. Many filers use the Chapter 13 repayment plan to catch up on back payments so that they can keep a house, car, or other property that theyd lose otherwise. Others use it to pay off debts that arent wiped out in bankruptcy, such as back taxes or child support arrearages. These problems cant be solved using Chapter 7.

If you want to know more about how Chapter 13 works and what it can do for you, this is the book. It stops short of giving you all the forms and instructions you would need to do your own Chapter 13 bankruptcy, however. The reality is that very few people can carry out this task without attorney representation. (See Do You Need a Lawyer? below.)
