i file chapter 13 a year ago and need a vehicle is there a way i can buy a car being i had filed chapter 13

Filing for chapter 13 bankruptcy does not limit you from buying a car. Your credit will be affected in this may affect your ability to acquire credit to purchase a car, but you are not barred from using credit after you file for bankruptcy. Depending on your particular situation and what proactive steps you take to repair your credit after you receive your bankruptcy discharge, will determine when you can obtain credit again. But filing chapter 7 or chapter 13 bankruptcy does not forbid you from obtaining credit. I have responded to your inquiry according to the laws of Massachusetts, where my firm is located. Laws can vary significantly from state to state and cases tend to be rather fact-specific, so you are best served by consulting with a knowledgeable attorney in weighing your options.
