Stop Sheriff Sale in Indiana

Fort Wayne Bankruptcy Lawyer

If your bank or mortgage lender has foreclosed on you for failing to pay your mortgage, it will probably take steps to sell your property. Under Indiana law, the county sheriff is responsible for selling foreclosed properties. If your home is the subject of a sheriff's sale, it means that you are very close to losing your home. If you want to keep your home, you do not have many options at this point. However, one option will halt a sheriff's sale in its tracks.

At Jeffrey S. Arnold, Attorney at Law, P.C., we help individuals seek bankruptcy protection. If you file for bankruptcy before the date of the sheriff's sale, it will stop the sale. Filing bankruptcy will give you time to try to work out an arrangement with your lender. We charge reasonable fees and offer a free initial consultation to discuss your case.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy will stop a foreclosure temporarily. However, under Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you will have the opportunity to enter into a repayment plan to pay your past due mortgage balance over a three- to five-year period. You will be required to make your current mortgage payments over this time as well. Your home is your single biggest investment. You do not want to lose it without doing everything you can to save it. Our law firm will help you understand your options and protect your rights throughout the process.
