Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Texas?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy discharges most unsecured debts after non-exempt assets are sold. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a 3 to 5 year repayment plan. Texas law provides generous exemptions for homesteads and personal property, which can affect your choice.
How long does bankruptcy take in Laredo Texas?
A Chapter 7 case typically takes 3 to 6 months from filing to discharge. A Chapter 13 plan lasts 3 to 5 years. The Laredo bankruptcy court requires credit counseling before filing and a debtor education course after filing.
Can I keep my house and car if I file bankruptcy in Texas?
Yes, in many cases. Texas has a homestead exemption with no dollar limit for urban or rural property up to certain acreage. You can also exempt up to 2 vehicles per licensed driver. A lawyer can help you confirm that your assets fit within these exemptions.
