Can they take my house if I am current?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
The bank is insisting on a reaffirmation because they know you & your paralegal are ignorant of the law. Had you been represented, a competent bankruptcy attorney could have kept you from worrying about this problem & even helped you to obtain a lower monthly mortgage payment. A reaffirmation of a real estate loan is almost always a bad move because you could be liable for a lot of money if there is a subsequent foreclosure and the property sells at auction for less than the mortgage balance.

How can I file bankruptcy for my brother who is in prison?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Marc S Stern (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at The Law Office of Marc S. Stern
Courts will, in some cases make exceptions to allow a person to attend the 341 hearing if they are in jail. However, he is in jail. He has no wages to garnish. Collection will be difficult if not impossible. What possible benefit to him is filing a bankruptcy? If he needs to do something when he gets out, then is the time to discuss it.

My wife co-signed for her mother on a bank credit card. Now married, my mother is filing bankruptcy. Will my wife be paying?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
The co-signer is just as responsible as the signer. They probably will come after your wife. What you can do about it is ask for verification of the debt. Perhaps if they sue you could do what is known as a notice of production, asking for all of the individual receipts for credit card purchases. Most companies use to have central clearing houses where the receipts go. Who knows where they go now in this digital age. They may have to produce these things for trial. You will need to hire an attorney in order to do this right. Good luck.
