What are my options if I'm being sued by an out-of-state debtor for violation of automatic stay?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney William Monroe Rubendall (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at William Rubendall Attorney at Law
An automatic deduction by a debtor is considered a voluntary payment rather than a collection effort. If the debtor asks to stop the payment failure to do so would be a violation of the automatic stay.

If I owe $45316 on my home, $8000 on my car and $3600 in old debts how much would it be for chapter 13?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Kathryn Ursula Tokarska (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Kathryn Tokarska
Chapter 13, which is the restructure and repayment bankruptcy has a "no look" fee in Southern California of $3,600. "No look" means attorneys are free to charge up to this amount without having to account for their time to the Trustee/Court. Most attorneys will charge the "no look" fee because they don't want to bother with keeping track and accounting for every minute they spend on the case. Some attorneys will charge more and go through the extra steps to get paid. Unlike Chapter 7, where legal fees need to be paid upfront before the case is filed, how you pay the fee is negotiable. Some attorneys will file the case with little money down and allow for payment of remaining fees through the Chapter 13 plan. To file chapter 13, you must have regular income.

Is it legal to continue billing me for mortgage if I included it in chapter 7?

Answered by attorney Jason Thomas Olivier (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Olivier Law Firm, LLC
Once you are discharged, you do not owe the mortgage. The mortgage remains on the property however. Anyone can ask you for money, but you are not legally bound to pay them. Same case here, though I would have an attorney send them a cease and desist letter.
