Sometimes you just need to catch up. If you're earning a consistent income but are overburdened with debt, then Chapter 13 bankruptcy could be the path for you. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is designed to give individuals with high levels of secured debt or valuable property room to manage their debts and keep their property.
