Should I file for bankruptcy if I am back on a loan?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Sanaz Sarah Bereliani (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Bereliani Law Firm, PC
To get the facts straight it sounds like your parents lent you money and you put this in a written agreement whereby you put the car as collateral, however, you never followed up with transferring registration to their name or taking any steps via DMV to show they have a lien on the vehicle? If that's correct, then youre parents have a lien on your car and your car will have less or no equity that needs protecting. The correct step would've been to take care of the transfer simultaneous to when you received the money as that would make it a valid transaction. At this point, it is a little late but I think it should be fine for you to fill out paperwork with DMV showing they have a lien on your vehicle. The Trustee may question the validity of this, wondering you're trying to hide assets, but if you can show that you've been making regular monthly payments to your parents as lien holders and you're treating them at arms length like any other creditor and are not 'preferring' them to any of your other creditors, then you're fine. The issue becomes if they feel like you are preferring family/friend creditors over other creditors or that you're transferring title to the car just to protect an asset and that there is no legit loan. As long as you can prove that there was a secured lien you're fine.

Can I include a unemployment benefit overpayment when filing for bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Rustin Scott Polk (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Polk & Associates
When you file a bankruptcy case, the court will want a list of every debt you think you might possibly owe to any person, anywhere in the world. So yes, you should include the unemployment over payment when you file. As to whether or not your bankruptcy case will eliminate that particular debt by discharging it, the answer usually is yes but that answer can sometimes change when a lien has been filed as you indicated has been done. When a lien has been filed, you have to look at the exemptions and compare those to the property before being able to guess. Something else that effect the answer is the timing of when the lien was filed compared to when the bankruptcy case was filed.

What will happen to my 20 foot trailer if I filed chapter 7?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
What will happen to your trailer is sort of up to you. If you continue to make the payments to the lender, chances are you will be able to keep it, if you can't make the payments, expect the lender to ask the court to allow them to repo it.
