Iam a 40 yr old man living in my parent's house. If I file for bankruptcy can my creditors expect my parents to pay my debts? I have about $30,000

Richard Alan Alsobrook
Answered by attorney Richard Alan Alsobrook (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Alan Alsobrook
It really depends on whether the debt is yours solely, or are your parents cosigners, named on any credit cards, or any other arrangement where your parents agree to guarantee the loan. A loan is a contract where one party agrees to give money at a certain time, and the other party agrees to repay the loan at a later date.  The contract can only involve the parties in interest.  As such, a creditor can only collect from the party or parties that acquire the debt.  If your parents were involved in the acquiring of the debt, then they may be held responsible for repayment.  If your parents did not help in acquiring the debt then they should not be help responsible.   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.

Can I file for a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
If no assets or creditors were left out of the papers that were filed, you do not need to amend the schedules. They are prohibited from contacting you and there may be a violation of the automatic stay if they have. You also do not need to send creditors proof that you have filed or that the debt to them has been discharged. They already got notice that you have filed. Often, one department of a large bank does not know what the other department knows. If a bank tries to collect a debt which has been discharged, there may be a violation of the Federal automatic stay.

Unless the accident was the result of driving under the influence the debt would be discharged in bankruptcy.
