What are my options if I need to take out pension loan to repair my car which I use for work?

Stuart M. Nachbar
Answered by attorney Stuart M. Nachbar
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Stuart M. Nachbar, P.C.
I would wait until after your 341 and then for the time line for the Trustee or any other person to object to exemptions to expire.

Who has the right of ownership to the vehicle?

Daniel A. Edelman
Answered by attorney Daniel A. Edelman
Bankruptcy lawyer at Edelman, Combs, Latturner & Goodwin, LLC
1. I would not suggest self-help taking of vehicle without court order. 2. It is difficult to tell what interests were intended or exist as a matter of law. A reasonable resolution is that #1 gets vehicle if he reimburses #2 for amounts paid, possibly with interest. If he cannot reimburse, sell the car and distribute the proceeds in that manner. Alternatively, #2 gets car upon paying #1 the payments he made. If the parties cannot agree the only way to resolve the matter is a lawsuit naming #1 and #2 and asking court to order disposition of the vehicle and distribution of the proceeds. The cost involved and the low prices obtained at forced sales would strongly suggest that the parties ought to agree.

Can I file chapter 7 bankruptcy with undue hardship?

Richard Alan Alsobrook
Answered by attorney Richard Alan Alsobrook (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Alan Alsobrook
A chapter 7 bankruptcy will discharge unsecured debts.  I assume the the private loans and federal loans you reference are student loans.  Student loans are exceptionally difficult to receive a discharge on, unless there are extreme circumstances.  Inability to afford student loans likely will not qualify as a hardship in order to receive the discharge on the student loans.  The hardship exception is typically used for individuals experiencing debilitating injuries or mental defects preventing them from obtaining work.  Credit card debt, however, is unsecured debt and likely will receive a discharge. You should consult a local bankruptcy attorney to determine if the hardship exception is available to you.  Most bankruptcy attorneys offer a free initial consultations to determine if you qualify for bankruptcy, and to determine if bankruptcy is appropriate. This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature. No attorney-client relationship exists or is formed by this information. Furthermore, this does not represent the views or opinions of LexisNexis or its affiliated companies.

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
