Stop Foreclosures

Stop Foreclosures

King and King can help stop your home foreclosure

If you are getting behind on your mortgage payment or are facing foreclosure, Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be the best option for you to keep your home. Once you file a Chapter 13 in Georgia, an “automatic stay” is placed on your home, prohibiting the mortgage company from proceeding with the foreclosure. The arrears you owe are placed into a monthly payment that is tailor-made for you by your attorney.

Chapter 13 bankruptcy gives you some breathing room and time to get back on track with your finances, all the while saving your home from foreclosure. Additionally, Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be able to drastically reduce other debts that you have, such as interest payments on your vehicle. It may also be able to reduce or eliminate entirely your unsecured debt, like credit cards and medical bills. So, there are many benefits to filing Chapter 13 other than simply stopping foreclosure.

Some clients are able to eliminate their second mortgage altogether using Chapter 13 bankruptcy. This is commonly known as “lien stripping.”  If you have more than one mortgage on your home, and the value of your home is less than what you owe on your first mortgage, you may qualify to eliminate the second mortgage altogether and never pay it back.

King & King would file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy for you and file a special motion with the Court to strip the lien and eliminate your second mortgage. We can help you save your home and stop foreclosure.
