Is it legal to advertise about an attorney who hurt me (malpractice)?

What's the point? If you have really been wronged, file a complaint with the Grievance Committee. They will investigate and if your complaint has grounds, they will take action. In New York State (perhap others) there is also a Fund For Client Protection which all licenced attorneys in the state pay into and clients who have been financially harmed can recover.

Is it possible for the previous loan owner to take us to court and have the case reopened after refinancing?

Answered by attorney Jay William Moreland (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Jay W. Moreland, P.A.
Yes, it is possible. You can sue anyone for anything. That doesn't mean that every lawsuit filed will win. If you refinanced and got a new loan to pay off the old one, there should be no debt left. It may be possible that the previous loan was not paid for some reason Including a mistake. If that is what happened, you may have a claim against the person who closed the refinanced loan. The bankruptcy may have discharged the original mortgage, check with your bankruptcy attorney to confirm that. The lien on the home should have survived the bankruptcy, so if the mortgage was not paid off for any reason, the original lender can still foreclose to get the home back.

Can you go on a trip to Hawaii if you are in a chapter 13 bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Thomas Corcoran Phipps (Unclaimed Profile)

You could not if it is a personal trip. If your Chapter 13 plan has been approved by a judge, the expenses for that trip will probably not be included in your monthly expenses, and so would not be allowable by the court. And if you can afford to take a trip to Hawaii, you should pay that money to your trustee to help to pay off you creditors. If you are taking a business trip, I believe that would be alright if the trip is paid for by company funds and you are not the owner of the business.
