Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Riverside Bankruptcy Attorney

California Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Attorney Providing Debt Relief

Filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a form of debt consolidation designed for repayment of some or all your debt to creditors using future income and a detailed plan. A bankruptcy lawyer can protect your interests. The Mellor Law Firm guides clients across San Bernardino, Riverside and neighboring counties through the bankruptcy process, offering the attentive service of a small firm backed by large firm resources and results.

Free Consultations – Bankruptcy in Riverside
More expansive than Chapter 7 liquidation, restructuring debt under Chapter 13 involves a court-approved repayment plan allowing for consolidation of debt payments for a period of two to four years. Often called the wage earner plan, this form of bankruptcy requires a consistent source of income, and creditors are only allowed to collect the amounts in the plan.

A California bankruptcy lawyer at The Mellor Law Firm will help you determine a reasonable repayment plan and understand how to budget your resources to successfully complete the plan. With our help clients can take advantage of Chapter 13 benefits:

  • Protection from the creditor collection
  • Keep a home and personal property
  • Repay debts with reduced payments
  • Discharge debts not allowed under other bankruptcy methods
  • Eliminate secured interest on junior liens of real property
  • Make tax repayments easier by eliminating interest payments
