Would funeral expenses be part of bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jeffrey P. Heineman (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Heineman Law Office
The debt will be dischargeable unless the funeral home can demonstrate that she incurred the debt fraudulently. In other words, she incurred the debt knowing that she had no intent on paying it. It is a difficult burden for the funeral home to hurdle, and it is doubtful that it will try. For the record, creditors use the "we will pursue this" card to try to scare people into paying. Don't do it.

What is the Status of Mortgage after Bankruptcy?

Marjorie A. Guymon
Answered by attorney Marjorie A. Guymon
Bankruptcy lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
If you do not reaffirm, you can still pay the mortgage timely and ultimately own the house upon payment in full. However, the mortgage company may not reflect the timely payments on your credit report but rather note the debt discharged. So the timely payments will not help you re-establish your credit. Some banks will not do a loan modification if you have filed bankruptcy and failed to reaffirm the debt.

When is it appropriate to start paying a reaffirmed debt, Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney William Monroe Rubendall (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at William Rubendall Attorney at Law
If you represent yourself in bankruptcy a reaffirmation agreement must first be approved by the judge before it becomes in effect. However, you can make voluntary payments of the debt before the agreement is approved. Also, if the debt is not approved you still can make voluntary payments as long as the lender will accept them.
