Can you file bankruptcy chapter 7 on legal fees from a custody case?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
If the legal bill was owed to your attorney, it can be eliminated in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, but if the legal bill was an amount awarded to your ex or the ex?s attorney, it could be a problem to eliminate in Chapter 7 If this is your only debt or is the major portion of your debt, I would be looking at other options before considering bankruptcy.

Yes, once the bankruptcy is filed the automatic stay will go in place which will stop wage garnishments.

Can my ex wife file my car in her bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Roger J Bus (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Debt Relief Law Center
Unfortunately yes. The security agreement sounds like it is in her name only. If she files Chapter 7 and rejects the car note, the creditor will pick up the car. Your only recourse would be to go back to the original divorce judgment and see if there is a "hold harmless" clause- e.g.- she is to make sure the car note is protected and you are "held harmless." You would then have to file an action in family court or circuit court for enforcement of that provision. Or, you could beg the car note creditor to allow you to continue to make the payments. Last but not least, you could kindly ask your ex-spouse to sign a reaffirmation agreement on the vehicle- and convince her you will never default on it causing her future liability.
