Are you worried about losing your home, your car, and your other property? Our New Jersey bankruptcy attorneys can assure you: You will not lose your home or car if certain conditions are met during your Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
Brenner Spiller & Archer is a bankruptcy law firm that has been helping clients reach fresh financial futures for more than 30 years. We have helped clients throughout Central and South Jersey stop foreclosure on their homes and avoid repossessions. If bankruptcy is not your best option, we can also help you consider the possibility of a loan modification to save your home.
Helping You Keep Your Property
If certain conditions are met during and after bankruptcy, you may be able to keep your real estate, car, and other property. These conditions include:
- You must be able to meet your house and car payments after bankruptcy. If you cannot meet those payments, your house may go into foreclosure or your car may be repossessed or liquidated.
- You must be able to meet your other payments with the financial resources available to you. If you cannot meet all of your payments after bankruptcy, you may need to sell your home or your vehicle.
Even if you cannot meet your payments, there are other options available to you to help you keep your property. For example, you may be able to negotiate a payment plan with your creditors to help you pay back any nonexempt equity on your house or car. You may also consider negotiating with creditors for a loan modification to make payment possible.
Adjusting to Life After Bankruptcy
Making better choices is always the goal. Credit is important and will be re-established by making payments on utilities or new obligations. We are always available to answer any questions you may have.
