Austin County Bankruptcy Lawyer

Austin County Bankruptcy Lawyer

A Chapter 13 bankruptcy may be the solution for Austin County, Texas, residents who are facing the foreclosure process even if you have already received your 20 day eviction notice via certified or first class mail. The attorneys at Busby & Associates want to help you stay in your home and prevent it being sold at the foreclosure auctions which are held the 1st Tuesday of every month in Texas. Once you have filed and it is approved then the home owner has a 5 year period to pay back the amount in arrears which can include home association dues and property taxes that are behind as well. In the event that you are on your 2nd mortgage with no property equity from the 1st loan then you may be able to pay a minimal amount (pennies on the dollar) for this loan while it is being discharged.

Repossession of a Vehicle

Busby & Associates firm understands that residents of Matagorda County need their vehicle for work and personal reasons which is why they may recommend you file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy if you are behind on your vehicle payments to any of the dealerships listed below. The interest rate on the payment may be lowered to around 5% or you may only be required to pay the current market value of the vehicle in place of the owed amount. If the vehicle has already been repossessed then you may need an ‘emergency’ Chapter 13 filed on your behalf within the 10 day window allowed by Texas law. This ensures that you can make up the back payments while still retaining your vehicle for use.
