Chapter 13 - Debt Reorganization

Chapter 13 is a personal reorganization for individual wage earners. This means that corporations and businesses are not eligible for chapter 13. A chapter 13 will help those who earn enough to meet their basic needs each month but are having a difficult time paying their creditors. When you need a lower monthly payment in order to meet the demands of your creditors, this is the bankruptcy plan that will help you get back on track.
