Chapter 13 & Foreclosure Defense
Saving Your Home with Chapter 13 Bankruptcy in Westchester County
If you are facing the prospect of losing your home or other property through
foreclosure, it is critical that you take immediate action to halt the
process. Chapter 13 provides debtors with the opportunity to resolve their
financial matter and end the threat of foreclosure.
Chapter 13 under the United States Bankruptcy Code is a process that allows
assets and finances to be reorganized under the guidance of the court.
By filing under this chapter, you can buy the time you need to seek a
loan modification or resolve the mortgage debt in another manner.

How does Chapter 13 bankruptcy work?
In a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the court can approve a reorganization plan
for the payment of your debt, including any overdue mortgage payments.
The reorganization plan can continue for 3-5 years.
Chapter 13 can reduce the overall amount that you owe to creditors beyond
what is owed to your mortgage holder. This process can help get you back
the control you need over your financial life.
Immediately after filing a
Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the court will issue an automatic stay. The automatic stay orders your
creditors to cease all collection activities.
The automatic stay will postpone the foreclosure of your home, unless:
- The lender obtains the court's permission to proceed with the sale
- The foreclosure notice has already been filed
