If I file Chapter 7, will my son also be obligated to file since we are joint owners of the home?

You haven't provided the kind of information needed to answer this question. Are you planning on keeping the real estate? If so, as long as your payments on the mortgage are current, your son won't face any liability problem for this debt. If you are planning on surrendering this real estate, the way you prepare for this event could hurt your son. I hope you will discuss this issue with the attorney you retain to represent you on your bankruptcy.

What should I do with my childrens cars in my bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Tony E. Carballo (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Carballo Law Offices
Those transfers have to be reported in your Statement of Financial Affairs which must be filed as part of your bankruptcy petition. The trustee can ask the court set aside the transfers and recover the vehicles to be sold in order to pay for your debts. In some cases the trustee can go back up to four years to set aside a transfer of an asset although usually two years is the limit to set aside a transfer. Depending on the value of the vehicles and when you made the transfer that could be a problem. You need to write down all the information, such as dates of transfer and value of vehicles, and see a bankruptcy attorney for advice on whether you should file now or wait. You could argue that the cars were not really yours and you were only on title because the kids were minors when the vehicles were bought but that is risky if the trustee disputes that and goes after the vehicles.
