Chapter 7 is usually less expensive than a Chapter 13 and takes less time\u2014usually only 4 months from start to finish. In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you can discharge (wipe out) most unsecured debt (meaning that the debt is not secured with collateral). Credit card debt and medical debt are two common types of unsecured debt. You may be able to keep all or most of your assets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Balthazar; font-weight: normal;\">In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you have only one hearing\u2014a brief hearing with the bankruptcy trustee that takes about five minutes. This is called the Meeting of Creditors or a 341 Meeting. Despite the name, it is very rare for creditors to appear.\u00a0 A few months after this meeting, you should receive your bankruptcy discharge<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Balthazar; font-weight: normal;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-large; font-family: Balthazar; font-weight: normal;\"><strong>Chapter 13<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Balthazar; font-weight: normal;\">In some situations, a Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a better option. You may decide to file for bankruptcy under Chapter 13 if the bankruptcy \u201cmeans test\u201d shows that you do not qualify for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, because you make too much money for the area in which you live. Chapter 13 may also be a better choice if the type of debt you are struggling with is something that could not be discharged in a Chapter 7, like certain tax debt or back child support; in a Chapter 13, that debt is paid off over the course of the bankruptcy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Balthazar; font-weight: normal;\">Chapter 13 may also be right for you if you have a house or car you would like to keep, but you have fallen behind on the payments. Chapter 13 is known as a \u201cwage earner\u2019s\u201d bankruptcy because you must have a job where you can show the monthly payments will come from for the next three to five years of plan payments.\u00a0 Most people who file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy do not make it all the way through the repayment plan, and their case is dismissed for failing to make plan payments.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Balthazar; font-weight: normal;\">In Chapter 13 bankruptcy, your attorney helps you make a plan to make payments on your debt over three to five years. You have a Meeting of Creditors, as in a Chapter 7, but also an appearance before the bankruptcy court judge to confirm your repayment plan. An \u201cautomatic stay\u201d goes into effect as soon as you file either a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, preventing your creditors from trying to collect on debts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243;
