Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a way that individuals and businesses can choose to repay some of their unsecured debts.

Those who file for this type of bankruptcy use all their excess income to repay their debts. Not all people qualify for or want to file for chapter 7. Chapter 13 is often a better option for their circumstances. In this video, Attorney B David Sisson explains who may qualify to file for a chapter 13 bankruptcy under the US bankruptcy code.
