Reorganizing Debt with Chapter 13 Consolidation

For many families in Shreveport, Chapter 13 bankruptcy offers an effective way to stop foreclosure sales and vehicle repossessions. Under Chapter 13, you can consolidate your debts into a manageable monthly payment plan spanning three to five years. Attorney Laban Levy excels at drafting precise, technically sound repayment plans that satisfy court requirements while protecting your personal assets. Chapter 13 is highly beneficial for individuals who have fell behind on mortgage or car payments but have a regular income, enabling them to catch up on arrears gradually without fear of creditor harassment.

Seeking a Fresh Start with Chapter 7 Liquidation

If you are struggling with high credit card debt, medical bills, payday loans, or signature loans, Chapter 7 bankruptcy might be the right solution. Commonly known as liquidation bankruptcy, Chapter 7 allows you to completely wipe out qualifying unsecured debt, giving you a clean slate. Laban Levy walks clients through the means test to determine their eligibility and works diligently to protect exempt assets, such as household goods, clothing, and primary vehicles, ensuring clients retain what they need to rebuild their lives.
