Struggling with credit card and medical debt is stressful and confusing. But it doesn’t have to be. There are options to consolidate your debt, including filing a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. Why choose Chapter 13 over using a debt consolidation company? Chapter 13 allows you to put you and your family ahead of the creditors. When working with a debt consolidation company, you pay them. They set up a repayment plan and collect a percentage as payment for their services. You’re paying all of the debt and then some. When finances are already tight, why pay more?
THE Truth IS...
By filing a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you work with your lawyer to set up a repayment plan and the creditors cannot harass you while you are working towards financial freedom. A repayment schedule is set up and payments are based on what you can afford. You can keep your car, your house and after a specified period of time, the remaining debt is wiped out, forever - tax free! Immediately after filing a court order known as an automatic stay prohibits any collection activity. Chapter 13 is here to help you get your life back, not cost you. Chapter 13 is a relief to the financial stress and struggles caused by overwhelming debt problems.
Hypothetically SPeaking
Still not sure? Consider this hypothetical situation. Let’s say you have $50,000 in credit card debt. You set up a plan with a debt consolidation company to pay the debt off over five years (if you’re lucky). The company collects 5% as their fee for helping you. In this situation, you would be paying $875 every month for five years. That’s a total of $52,500! $2,500 more than you originally owed! Now let’s take this hypothetical debt and file for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. Again, you have $50,000 in credit card debt. You and your lawyer have worked together to set up a payment plan of $200 each month for five years. By the end of this time period, you will have paid $12,000. What happens to the other $38,000? Thats right. It’s gone! Wiped out. Forever. Tax free! Makes you wonder why anyone would ever consider debt consolidation, right?
