Are judgments included in Chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Deborah A. Stencel
If the debt is a kind of debt that is dischargeable, you can still discharge the debt even though there is a judgment. You may have to take extra steps to have the judgment satisfied in state court or to have the judgment lien lifted, however. Speak to your attorney about this.

How does go about Bankruptcy Chapter 7 and Mortgage Reaffirmation?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Christopher J. Kane, P.C.
If you got your bankruptcy discharge, after the house is foreclosed on you will not be responsible for the balance on the mortgage. And, you cannot reaffirm a mortgage in Chapter 7 anyway.

How does go about Bankruptcy Chapter 7 and Mortgage Reaffirmation?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
As long as you didn't reaffirm the mortgage, you don't owe the mortgage company any money. But walking away can come with its own price & repercussions, including being legally responsible for expenses relating to property ownership that occurred after the bankruptcy was filed, such as taxes, insurance, HOA dues, and municipal maintenance obligations. A foreclosure can damage your credit further & may even with good credit, you may be ineligible to obtain another mortgage in the future.
