What Is a Chapter 20 Bankruptcy?

Are you surprised that you have not heard of a Chapter 20 bankruptcy? Don't be. It actually does not exist. It is the name given to filing a Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy back-to-back. It is not a common practice and is most frequently used for those interested in saving their home or getting rid of a lien on their home. Because it is a unique request, you need an experienced bankruptcy attorney to handle your situation.

How Does a Chapter 20 Work?

This process requires a dual filing, which makes it both complex and time consuming, so you need a knowledgeable and skilled attorney to handle your situation. The process essentially works by filing Chapter 13 after a Chapter 7 discharge on unsecured debt. Step by step, we guide you through the following process:

File a Chapter 7, receive discharge of debt
Use Chapter 13 to dispose of liens
Can also use Chapter 13 plan to pay off nondischargeable debts over time
Buys additional time to avoid collection actions
Can also bring claims against creditors for violations of Chapter 7 stay, Chapter 7 discharge, etc.

Who Would Use a Chapter 20 Bankruptcy?

We often recommend this approach to individuals and families who have a tremendous amount of unsecured debt and who are behind on mortgage payments as well. Often they need help eliminating a second mortgage.

I couldn't have prayed for a better law firm than Sulaiman Law Group. I found your team to be congenial, professional and consistently available throughout the process. I only wish I had found you sooner. I will highly recommend your firm to any and everyone!

Wow. An honest, ethical attorney who actually cares about people. I know, how can that be. Well, you need to talk to Ahmad Sulaiman to find out.

He has literally saved my life; and, that is not a metaphor. His office has fought for me where few firms in the country could have had any success; and, I am able to look forward with some hope.

You can be certain that, if you are not an attorney, whatever you THINK you know about the law, you are probably GUARANTEED to be completely wrong in your assessment. Consult with an attorney who actually cares, tempered with being brilliant.

I could not be in better hands; and, words do not describe how differently my life would have been had I not met Ahmad Sulaiman. It was literally an answer to a prayer. By Glen S

Ahmad is a real gem in the legal profession. I strongly recommend him.

Mr. Mohammed Badwan is an excellent, sincere and knowledgeable attorney. He is always on top of negotiations with creditors and gets back to you promptly to give you any updates.. He makes you feel very comfortable and stays with you as a good legal advisor through the entire process.

As a healthcare professional and business owner myself, I am very sensitive to the minute details with the quality of overall service- work ethics, professionalism and the team effort put in to achieve client's goals and satisfaction. I will give this group an A+ and wish them success and bright future. Keep up the good work....
