Warren Lawyer Who Can Stop Vehicle Repossession
Keep Your Car Or Get It Back Through Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

If you are worried about losing your vehicle, James C. Warr & Associates can help you take action. In addition to avoiding repossession, a special provision in the bankruptcy law may allow you to restructure your car loan on more favorable terms.

Warren Car Repossession Attorney: Chapter 13 Protection
As soon as you file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the automatic stay prevents lenders from repossessing your car or hiring a third party to do so. Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows you restructure your car loan over three to five years.
Vehicle already repossessed? Filing for Chapter 13 may allow you to get it back — so long as it has not yet been sold at auction. Contact James Warr immediately to preserve your rights.
Refinancing Your Auto Loan Through A Chapter 13 Cramdown
Bankruptcy can halt home foreclosure, but it doesn't modify the primary mortgage. However, Chapter 13 bankruptcy can modify the terms of your car loan. You can invoke the "cramdown" if you have owned your car for at least 910 days (2½ years). The loan balance is reduced to the current market value of the vehicle, and the interest rate or number of remaining payments may be reduced.
