What can I do if I filed a chapter 9 years ago that was discharged and I currently owe $12,000.00 in credit card debt?

Jeffrey David Solomon
Answered by attorney Jeffrey David Solomon (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Jeffrey Solomon
You are eligible to file another chapter 7 since it has been more than 8 years since you filed the prior case. You should consult an attorney as to whether you should file again at this time.

When you file bankruptcy what happens if I owe money on my home, do I lose my home and how do I go about filing for bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Christian Frederick Paul (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Christian F. Paul
The short answer is that most people who own a house, and are behind on their mortgage payments, and file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, end up keeping their house.? They have to keep up with the mortgage payments afterward, or the lender will foreclose and take the property away.? But usually they get the debt discharged by the Bankruptcy Court, so the lender cannot get any money out of the debtor, just the house. Obviously that's a broad generalization.? You should make an appointment to speak with a local bankruptcy attorney often they will give you a 30-minute consultation for free and take with you your deed, your vehicle registrations, your last two years' tax returns, last two or three pay stubs, most recent statements / invoices / demand letters from everyone you owe money to, a list of your assets, and a list of your ordinary monthly expenses.? The attorney should be able to size up your situation and give you an answer whether bankruptcy will help you, what to expect, and how much it will cost.

Can a HELOC be discharged with chapter 7 bankruptcy?

John A Moffa
Answered by attorney John A Moffa (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Moffa & Breuer, PLLC
Right now the law is in a state of flux regarding HELOCs which are not secured at all. Depending on the outcome of a case currently pending in the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals, you might want to consider a Chapter 13 case which would strip the HELOC from the property. This is tricky and a highly experienced bankruptcy attorney should be able to help.
