Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Petitions in Bucks County
Under a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the federal bankruptcy court sets up a three to five-year repayment plan that makes your debt more manageable. As a result, at the end of the repayment period, you will be current on your mortgage and other payments and will have saved your family's home. You can use Chapter 13 bankruptcy to stop home foreclosure or the repossession of your car and still discharge credit card debt.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy and Your Future Credit Rating
Filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy relief does not mean that you will never again qualify for a credit card, car loan or home mortgage. While it is true that a bankruptcy filing does remain on your credit report for a number of years, people who have been through Chapter 13 bankruptcy are still able to get credit cards, utility services, car loans and even home mortgages at competitive rates.
