If I owe money on an apartment I was evicted from, lease is under my name and someone else's, will this be covered when I file?

Answered by attorney D. Nathan Davis (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Davis Law Firm
If you file bankruptcy, all of your non-dischargeable debts will be discharged. Unpaid rent is usually not a problem if you file bankruptcy. Of course, if there was some bad faith in your non-payment, then the apartment owner could try and block your discharge. I have never seen such a debt blocked from discharge, but, you need to meet with an attorney and go over all of the facts surrounding the rental and see if there is a problem. If you file bankruptcy, the person who was on the lease with you will likely become solely liable for the unpaid rent.

Do we need to reopening a Discharged Bankruptcy?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Mankus & Marchan, Ltd.
Generally speaking, only pre-petition property becomes part of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy estate. Therefore, your wife need not report any award of damages she receives after the discharge in bankruptcy.

If I do bankruptcy, does this wipe the slate clean, or will I still have massive bills to pay?

Chapter 7 bankruptcy, if you're eligible, wipes the slate clean except for certain debts including some taxes, child support, student loans and a few more. See a bankruptcy lawyer; most charge nothing to review your case.
