My property was discharged in Chapter 7 bankruptcy am I still responsible for property insurance?

You are still responsible for providing for & paying for home owners insurance as long as your name is on the title to the property. As many lenders are slow to proceed with foreclosures, particularly after a bankruptcy, you may wish to consider whether you can get your name off of the title to the property through a short sale.

How do I get rid of student loans through bankruptcy?

Angelo Anthony Gasparri
Answered by attorney Angelo Anthony Gasparri (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Gasparri Law Group
Unfortunately in FLorida, the judges have concluded that student loans are simply NEVER dischargeable.  There are subtleties in the law, and other judges in other states have allowed discharge.  But not here.  Staying in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy can protect you from penalties and collections efforts, but interest still accrues.  If you filed a Chapter 7 you are still on the hook for the obligations. If you did file a Chapter 7 - you may wish to file a Chapter 13 just to protect yourself from the student loans.

It probably will not be affected, but you should get advice from a good bankruptcy attorney before filing.
