Chapter 13 bankruptcy is an opportunity to reorganize debt.
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates debt to pay creditors as much as possible and give the debtor a fresh start. In contrast, no assets are sold (and all debts are liquidated) in the vast majority of Chapter 13 cases. Talk to an experienced Roseville bankruptcy attorney about your debts and assets to determine if a Chapter 13 bankruptcy is for you.
What Should I Know About Chapter 13 Bankruptcy?
In contrast to Chapter 7 bankruptcy, which allows debtors to sell assets to repay creditors, Chapter 13 bankruptcy is about debt reorganization — a chance to set up a payment plan to pay back debts over 3-5 years. This can be an excellent choice if your debts are not dischargeable, such as recent income taxes.

Are you facing large arrearages in your home mortgage?
- Chapter 13 bankruptcy can give you the time you need to pay back past due home mortgage payments. Talk to a bankruptcy lawyer about negotiating a 5-year payback plan for the arrearages. Chapter 13 bankruptcy can give you the time you need to get your finances back on track. Additionally, if your home is underwater, you may be able to discharge and strip off the second lien on your home.

Do you owe back taxes to the IRS?
- You cannot discharge some back taxes in bankruptcy, but you can negotiate for an end to the penalties and interest while you pay back your tax debt over a defined period of time. If interest and penalties keep piling up, there may be no end in sight for your tax debt. Talk to your attorney about stopping the interest and penalties and starting to pay back your debt.
