Will filing for bankruptcy help in getting off my mortgage?

Melissa Ann Botting
Answered by attorney Melissa Ann Botting (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Melissa A. Botting
You can "surrender" your interest in the house in a bankruptcy. That will absolve you of personal responsibility for the mortgage. Without reviewing your detailed information, it is impossible to tell you if bankruptcy is a good option for you. If you understand that your student loans will probably not be discharged, it sounds like you are in a position where you should at least find out from someone who can run the numbers for you if bankruptcy is good for you.

Getting a job during a chapter 7

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
I do not practice in New York, but as long as you properly disclosed the possibility of your income increasing within the 12 months after filing your case, there shouldn't be a problem. Did you have this surgery before or after you filed your bankruptcy case?  If before, then you definitely should have disclosed the possibility of returning to work within the next 12 months.   If after, you still probably should have disclosed it (especially if you knew about the surgery). The means test only looks at income received PRIOR to filing the bankruptcy case, so if your attorney is really saying that the Trustee can use that as a means to get additional funds from you, then he/she doesn't know what they are talking about. However, the court can look at projected income that you KNEW about when your case was filed (which is why Schedule "I" and "J" ask for any changes likely to occur in the 12 months. You should at least wait until after your meeting with the Trustee, but I don't know that it's necessary to wait until the discharge.  But then again, it really depends on the above.   Mark Markus has been practicing exclusively bankruptcy law in California since 1991.  He is a Certified Specialist in Bankruptcy Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization,  AV-Rated by martindale.com, and A+ rated by the Better Business Bureau.

Can I file bankruptcy on accounts that I know are scams?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Edward M Olson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Olson Law Firm
Every bankruptcy filing will list all of your assets and all of your debts. It is perfectly legal, however, to enter into "reaffirmation" agreements with only some creditors. In other words, make a new promise to pay their claim. You also have the right to voluntarily pay a debt that was discharged in bankruptcy. Only the creditors are bound by the discharge. They cannot pursue their claim against you. So, yes, if you otherwise qualify for bankruptcy, you can file, and still pay some of your creditors voluntarily.
