What can I do if I can't afford chapter 13 payment and my attorney won't help?

Answered by attorney Carl C. Silver (Unclaimed Profile)

Write a letter to your bankruptcy Judge that the attorney you paid to do your 13 will not talk to you or process your case. He will wish he never heard of you but I am sure the Judge will get on him or her and make them do their job or face Court sanctions. It sounds like your plan has not yet been confirmed. If your case gets dismissed before it is confirmed, the chapter 13 trustee will probably send the money to your attorney. The procedure for this varies from one Bankruptcy Court to the next. Call your chapter 13 trustee. First tell the chapter 13 trustee that your attorney refuses to do work on your case. Then ask the chapter 13 trustee what happens to your money if dismissed after confirmation. They know it is your money, so you may be able to get it sent to you. If you didn't pay much to start, your attorney who won't work for you will probably just take the money and claim he earned it. After your plan is confirmed, the chapter 13 trustee will disburse the money. Most will probably go to your present attorney for fees initially.

Can I get a secured credit card while in bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
It would be up to the creditor to decide whether or not to accept you as a customer. Nothing in bankruptcy law prohibits you from doing this. However, some Chapter 13 Plans prohibit you from taking out any additional debt and this could be an issue of whether or not the secured credit card is in fact a debt.

Is criminal restitution excused on bankruptcy or not?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Rustin Scott Polk (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Polk & Associates
For it to be "criminal restitution" it has to be an award made by a criminal court, not a small claims court. There are other criteria too, but that's the one that your question indicates will be your biggest roadblock.
