Watch Burke explain

Straight answers from Burke.

Can bankruptcy wipe out tax debt?

Older income tax debt can sometimes be wiped out like credit card debt. Newer tax debt can be paid over 3 to 5 years in a Chapter 13 plan.

Garnished in the last 3 months? You may get that money back.

If $600 or more was garnished from your paycheck or bank account in the 3 months before you file, you may be able to get it back — in Chapter 7 or Chapter 13. The sooner you file, the better your chances.

Common questions

How much will my monthly payment be?

It depends on your income, expenses and what you are behind on. We calculate it with you before you file.

Can it really stop a foreclosure sale?

Yes — filing creates an automatic stay that halts the sale. Call as soon as you have a date.

What happens at the end?

When you finish the plan, remaining eligible unsecured debt is discharged and you are current on your home and car.
