Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Richmond Texas?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidates non-exempt assets to discharge most unsecured debts. Chapter 13 bankruptcy requires a 3 to 5 year repayment plan. Texas exemptions allow you to keep your home and personal property up to certain limits.
How long does a bankruptcy case take in Richmond Texas?
A Chapter 7 case typically takes 3 to 6 months from filing to discharge. A Chapter 13 case lasts 3 to 5 years. The process includes credit counseling and a meeting of creditors.
Will bankruptcy stop foreclosure or repossession in Richmond Texas?
Yes, filing bankruptcy triggers an automatic stay that stops most collection actions including foreclosure and repossession. This gives you time to work out a plan or catch up on payments. The stay remains in effect until the court modifies or lifts it.
