Submitted by Tim Kirkpatrick on January 15, 2013 - 12:49pm
Husband and wife in mid-50s living in Kenner, Louisiana came in to look at bankruptcy related options in connection with the pending foreclosure/Sheriff sale scheduled to take place within approximately one week. We initially looked at efforts to save the home through a chapter 13 bankruptcy. It's possible to restructure the mortgage arrearages through a chapter 13 plan payment and spread the arrearage out over a 60 month repayment plan.
