<h2> Chapter 13 - A Chance to Catch Up and Save Your Home and Vehicle</h2>

<body> If you have regular income but cannot afford to pay all your creditors, Chapter 13 bankruptcy puts foreclosure, repossessions, and debt collections on hold and provides the breathing room and allows you to pay only that portion of your unsecured debts you can afford over time. Most Chapter 13 cases do not pay all unsecured debt and some cases pay nothing to unsecured creditors. With some exceptions, those debts not paid in a Chapter 13 Plan are discharged.

As the oldest bankruptcy law firm in Louisiana, we have literally helped thousands of individuals and families find relief from debt and from creditors. Simon, Fitzgerald, Cooke, Reed and Welch offers a FREE CONSULTATION with NO UP FRONT ATTORNEY FEES.</body>
