Chapter 7 Liquidation for an Immediate Fresh Start

When unsecured debt grows insurmountable due to illness, divorce, or unemployment, Chapter 7 provides a direct legal pathway to eliminate eligible debts. Attorney Huffman carefully guides debtors through the means test and documentation requirements:

• Credit Card Debt Elimination: Wiping out burdensome revolving balances, high finance charges, and accumulated late fees.
• Unpaid Medical Debt Relief: Discharging emergency room bills, surgical charges, and ongoing medical collections that insurance did not cover.
• Payday and Unsecured Personal Loans: Freeing filers from predatory short-term loans, installment contracts, and high-interest financing arrangements.
• Enforcing the Automatic Stay: Halting abusive collection calls, harassing letters, lawsuits, and impending wage garnishments the moment the petition is filed.

Clients who hire an attorney from the practice benefit from flexible payment plans, with up to a full year to pay attorney fees while preparing the Chapter 7 petition for filing.

Chapter 13 Debt Adjustment and Home Foreclosure Prevention

For homeowners who have fallen behind on mortgage payments or individuals with regular income who do not qualify for Chapter 7, Chapter 13 offers powerful statutory protections under federal law:

• Halting Mortgage Foreclosure: Stopping scheduled foreclosure auctions immediately and structuring an affordable repayment plan to cure arrears over three to five years.
• Preventing Vehicle Repossession: Halting repossession efforts and restructuring automobile loan balances to reduce monthly payments and interest rates.
• Managing Tax Delinquencies: Organizing priority IRS and state tax debts into a predictable, interest-free payment structure through the bankruptcy trustee.
• Preserving Texas Property: Leveraging generous Texas homestead and personal property exemptions to ensure family homes and essential personal assets remain protected.
