Can legal action be taken if a creditor garnishes my check for someone else's debt?

You should first notify your bank in writing that you are objecting to this action and clearly write in the reasons. If the credit agency continues in its actions against your husband, you should file a complaint against the agency with the Consumer Fraud Division.

Should I sue my tenant for rent before he files for bankruptcy?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
Suing the tenant will probably do you know good, if he really files for bankruptcy. If you get a judgment against him, and he firehouse with in 90 days after that, your judgment could be voided. Similarly, if you collect anything from the tenant at least if you collect more than $600 with in those 90 days, you will have received what's called a preference, and the bankruptcy trustee can demand it back. Of course, many people threaten to file a bankruptcy, in the expectation that the news will deter creditors from suing them. So I guess you need to balance your need for payment, the amount you are likely to collect, and the expense of a legal action.

Shortsale after foreclosure and after chapter 7 discharge how long do we have to wait to get a mortgage?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Rustin Scott Polk (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Polk & Associates
Ask yourself this: What will I gain from doing a short sale? If they are going to pay you money put cash in your pocket then I guess you might have an incentive to go through all of the time, trouble, expense and aggravation of a short sale. Otherwise, I don't see the point. The foreclosure should not be on your credit report and currently you aren't on the hook for the mortgage (because you did not reaffirm it).
