Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in California?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates non-exempt assets to pay creditors and discharges most debts. Chapter 13 bankruptcy creates a 3 to 5 year repayment plan. In California, you must pass a means test to qualify for Chapter 7.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in La Mirada?
A Chapter 7 case typically takes 4 to 6 months from filing to discharge. A Chapter 13 case lasts 3 to 5 years. The court in Los Angeles County requires a credit counseling course before filing and a debtor education course after.
Can I keep my house if I file for bankruptcy in California?
