Before filing, the lender must send a Notice of Intention to Foreclose at least 30 days in advance, and homeowners who live in a one to four family home can ask for free court mediation within 60 days of being served.

Chapter 7 vs Chapter 13 bankruptcy in New Jersey

Chapter 13 lets people with regular income keep their property and catch up on debts, like mortgage arrears, through a three to five year payment plan. Both are filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey, and both trigger an automatic stay that stops most collection.

Medical decisions are handled by a separate document, a health care proxy (proxy directive).
