Can I file bankruptcy during home foreclosure

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
You can file bankruptcy any time you want (assuming you are eligible to file under a given chapter). Whether it is "too late" or not depends on what it is you're trying to accomplish, and you don't provide enough information to even begin answering that question. For example, if your goal is to stop the foreclosure sale and use bankruptcy to catch up on the payments, then it is too late to file after the foreclosure sale has taken place. If your goal is to discharge any deficiency you owe under applicable state law after the foreclosure sale, then it's never too late to file, although there can be significant tax consequences depending on when you file your case.  You would need to discuss that with a tax attorney who has bankruptcy experience. 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.

Should I fire my bankruptcy attorney and get another before the 341 meeting scheduled with creditors?

Bankruptcy lawyer at The Law Office of Marc S. Stern
If you are unhappy with your lawyer and not communicating, it is time to get a new one. Make sure, however that the problem is not your unrealistic expectations. Changing lawyers in the middle of a case is time consuming and difficult. It is better to do so before the ? 341 hearing than after. Positions can get set and impressions made that are difficult if not impossible to correct later.

Can the lean holder file suit against the co-signee?

Charles J Schneider
Answered by attorney Charles J Schneider (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Charles J. Schneider, P.C.
The question is confusing as there is no such person as a primary signee. If you sign you are co-equal signers.
