Can I sue a co-worker who just filed for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy for a loan?

Stuart M. Nachbar
Answered by attorney Stuart M. Nachbar
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Stuart M. Nachbar, P.C.
If she has filed for Bankruptcy, you may NOT institute suit as you would be in violation of the automatic stay and subject to damages. You would file a Proof of Claim in her Bankruptcy. There are ways to sue in the Bankruptcy Court, but you would have to prove fraud.

Can anything be done if the debtor files bankruptcy but the creditor was not notified?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
Lots of promissory notes say that. It doesn't give you any rights greater than the right to file a Proof of Claim in the bankruptcy for the total balance due. Which is a good idea. If you have a reasonable suspicion that some fraud or concealment is involved, you should consult an experienced bankruptcy lawyer and lay it out before him or her. First make sure the lawyer has no connection with the lawyer representing your debtor. While the debtor has a duty to list all creditors, anyone could leave one out inadvertently. In any case, you do have actual notice of the bankruptcy case, so if it is still open, you can file a claim. There a number of complexities in the law of bankruptcy, so consulting an experienced lawyer in your area would be a good idea.

Will a quit claim deed release me from the mortgage note?

Melissa Ann Botting
Answered by attorney Melissa Ann Botting (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Melissa A. Botting
A quit claim deed only surrenders any interest you have in the property. The mortgage company wants that to ensure that you will bring an action under community property spousal interest or any other interest. It does not remove you from a note. However, a modification is a new note and you may not be on the new note. I would insist on a document signed by an officer of the bank releasing you or a copy of a new note that does not include you before turning over a quit claim deed.
