Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Representation in Tampa, Clearwater & St. Petersburg, Florida
If you are looking to reorganize your debt, Chapter 13 bankruptcy is an option that allows for debt consolidation. The debtor pays a small percentage of their debts, interest free, over a period of three to five years. Once the payment plan is successfully completed, all eligible debts will be discharged.
A St. Petersburg bankruptcy lawyer at Leavengood & Nash can help you if you are facing overwhelming debt or foreclosure. We can talk to you about your financial goals and inform you of all your options so you can make a decision that’s best for you now and in the future. It may be that debt reorganization is a better option for you because you make a regular income or have property and assets that you would like to protect.
