How does one stop wage garnishment?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Ronald Karl Nims (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Ronald K. Nims
Filing bankruptcy stops any wage garnishment immediately. If you make a settlement agreement, then file bankruptcy within 90 days, the court will probably take back any funds that you paid them because you're not allowed to pick and choose among your creditors.

Will I ever again be liable for the repayment of my mortgage after a Chapter 7 discharge?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Christian Frederick Paul (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Christian F. Paul
If the loan was discharged in bankruptcy, you aren't personally liable for the debt any longer, but the deed of trust against the property remains, and if you quit making mortgage payments, the lender can foreclose and take the property. If you sell or refinance the property, thus paying off the lender, the lender will be happy and so will you. If you quit making payments, the lender can foreclose and get the property from you, but nothing else. Hope this answered your question.

Can you go on a trip to Hawaii if you are in a chapter 13 bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Thomas Corcoran Phipps (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Thomas Corcoran Phipps
You could not if it is a personal trip. If your Chapter 13 plan has been approved by a judge, the expenses for that trip will probably not be included in your monthly expenses, and so would not be allowable by the court. And if you can afford to take a trip to Hawaii, you should pay that money to your trustee to help to pay off you creditors. If you are taking a business trip, I believe that would be alright if the trip is paid for by company funds and you are not the owner of the business.

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
