Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Representation

Filing for bankruptcy triggers an immediate court order known as the automatic stay, which legally prohibits creditors from continuing collection actions, freezing bank accounts, or seizing property. Bishop Bankruptcy Centers guides clients through every phase of federal bankruptcy court proceedings in the Eastern District of Michigan:

• Chapter 7 Debt Elimination: Discharging overwhelming unsecured debt, including credit card balances, medical debts, personal loans, and past-due utility bills, allowing clients to become completely debt-free in a matter of months.
• Chapter 13 Debt Reorganization: Structuring manageable three-to-five-year court-supervised repayment plans to catch up on missed mortgage payments, prevent home foreclosure, and lower vehicle loan obligations.
• Halting Wage Garnishments: Filing emergency bankruptcy petitions to immediately terminate paycheck deductions and restore necessary household cash flow.
• Preventing Foreclosure and Repossession: Halting sheriff auctions, sheriff sales, and automotive repossessions, giving homeowners and motorists the legal structure required to retain vital property.
• Eliminating Second Mortgages and Strip-Offs: Utilizing Chapter 13 mechanisms to eliminate wholly unsecured second mortgages and home equity lines of credit where property values have declined.
• Stopping Creditor Harassment: Enforcing federal debtor protection statutes to end aggressive collection letters, third-party collection calls, and civil lawsuits.
