1. Eliminate the Obligation to Pay Many of Your Debts- Whether it is through traditional bankruptcy (Chapter 7 Bankruptcy) or through reorganization (Chapter 13 Bankruptcy), most or all of your debts can be cleared pretty easily.
2. End Foreclosure on Your Home So You Can Catch Up and Make Mortgage Payments- Filing for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy can effectively stop the foreclosure of your house, but it will not eliminate any missed mortgage payments. Instead it will help create a plan to pay those mortgage arrears.
3. Prevent Your Property From Being Repossessed- If you file for bankruptcy quickly enough you can potentially get back anything that has been repossessed by creditors. You will of course have to enter a payment plan where you make monthly payments to the trustee of your Chapter 13 Bankruptcy who will then pay the finance company.
