Can I file my chapter 7 myself since I cannot afford an attorney?

Giovanni Orantes
Answered by attorney Giovanni Orantes (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Orantes Law Firm
The forms for the petition are available online, but you cannot submit it online unless you are an attorney. You may want to consider contacting Public Counsel in Los Angeles. That organization offers pro bono assistance, but it does have a long wait so, the sooner you call, the sooner you can get help.

Can bankruptcy eliminate a court fine?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Tony E. Carballo (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Carballo Law Offices
A fine is a criminal judgment so it is not a civil judgment. You must be talking about a charge that may be related to a criminal case but not part of the sentence (not really a fine). For example, a cost that you must pay the court or a victim but it is not as part of the punishment for the crime. If not part of the sentence then it should be dischargeable in bankruptcy. Fines and restitution as a condition of probation are not dischargeable.
