Does filing bankruptcy automatically remove my name from the deed to my home?

Answered by attorney Michael Jay Berger
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Michael Jay Berger
Filing bankruptcy does not remove your name from the deed to your home. A foreclosure sale, if one happens, does remove your name from title to your home. How long it will take you to qualify for a new loan depends on many factors.

Can debtor garnish your bank account?

Answered by attorney Seth David Schraier
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Seth D. Schraier, P.C.
A debtor cannot, but perhaps you mean a "creditor." A creditor is a party to whom something is owed, such as a Credit Card company. The debtor is the one owing the money, such as the customer with the unpaid credit card balance. If a credit card company has an unpaid balance owed to it, they can bring suit in court against the debtor in order to collect the money owed. If you do not respond to the Summons with Notice, or Summons and Complaint, the creditor can ask for a default judgment to be entered against you. They can then proceed to enforce the judgement against you and collect the debt you owe, including garnishing your wages.

Can we sell our jointly owned home before bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Philip Rory Boardman (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Haven Law Group, P.C.
Yes, you can sell the house. However, you need to speak with an attorney about the impact that will have on your bankruptcy in terms of your exemptions. If you end up with cash, that may be difficult to exempt.
