Can the creditors still contact me during bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Jacob David Braunstein (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Jacob D. Braunstein, Attorney at Law
When a bankruptcy petition is filed, the "automatic stay" that goes into effect at the time of filing prevents creditors from making any attempt to collect on a debt. Typically, this includes prohibiting the creditor from contacting the debtor.

Can we pay cash for a home and keep it from bankruptcy

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
That depends on the exemption laws applicable to your case on the date your case is filed. Exemptions are "protections" for value you have in certain assets such that they are "exempt" from collections.  Every state has different exemptions amounts available. Exemption laws are based on the state where you resided for the 2 years prior to filing your bankruptcy case or, if you lived in more than 1 state during that period, in the state where you resided for the greater part of the 180 days prior to that 2 year period.  Assuming you've lived in Florida more than the past 2 years, you should be able to protect the equity in your home in any amount, but you should consult with an experienced bankruptcy attorney in your area for more details. Mark Markus has been practicing exclusively bankruptcy law in California since 1991.  He is a Certified Specialist in Bankruptcy Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization,  AV-Rated by martindale.com, and A+ rated by the Better Business Bureau.
