Will the vehicle be repossessed if I file? How?

As long as a co-signed car loan is current, the lender will not repossess it. But if the car has equity in it, and the equity is not protected by an available exemption, the bankruptcy trustee could take the car, sell it and use the proceeds to pay your debts. To me that is a lot more important than hurting that person's credit. It is likely that the car lender will stop reporting the car payments to the credit bureau to both you and your family member's credit. To the extent that having these timely car payments being reported helps the credit score, the score could decline.

What should I do if I am being harassed by creditors after receiving a Chapter 7 discharge?

Answered by attorney Stuart M. Nachbar
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Stuart M. Nachbar, P.C.
Gently.. I would not be gentle. I would give them a copy and if they fail to cease and desist, I would take it to the Bankruptcy Court and have them sanctioned.

You can probably file bankruptcy. The filing fee for a chapter 7 is $306. You will need to have an attorney do this for you. You cannot do it yourself, and petition preparers cannot give legal advice. There is a way to get the judgment against you declared null and void. This must be done by an attorney. Consult with some in your area and be sure to ask about getting the judgment declared void.
