What can I do if I can't afford chapter 13 payment and my attorney won't help?

You will have to have the attorney file a motion to withdraw, or you will have to file a motion to change attorneys. If you file it yourself, you will have to follow the rules of the bankruptcy court.

If you're in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy plan, can you file a Chapter 13 instead?

If the chapter 7 case has not been closed, you can convert to chapter 13. Discuss with an attorney to find out if that is the best option for you.

If a co defendant has received a bankruptcy stay in our case, can I still get a fair trial without him?

Answered by attorney Christian Frederick Paul (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Christian F. Paul
It sounds as though you are a defendant in a civil case and a co-defendant filed a bankruptcy petition. If you need his testimony to prove your case, you should be able to take his deposition before trial and to subpoena him as a witness at trial. You cannot pursue him for whatever he may owe you because of the bankruptcy stay, but asking him questions under oath to prove your defense is not prohibited. If in doubt, make a motion in the Bankruptcy Court for permission to subpoena the debtor in your civil case. I hope you are represented by counsel in your case. If not, and if it is important for you to prevail in defending the case, you might want to hire a lawyer while there's still time. Hope this perspective helps.
