What is dismissal of bankruptcy

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
A dismissal of bankruptcy means you are no longer in bankruptcy and did not receive a discharge of debts.  Thus, you still owe the balance remaining to any of your pre-bankruptcy creditors and if you were curing a default on your mortgage, the default is still there and they can now foreclose. Your options now are to either file a Motion for Reconsideration or to Set Aside the Dismissal if you have appropriate facts to do so (which you might), or file a new Chapter 13 case. A lot of times claims are filed which need to be paid in full, so the payment you were originally making might not have been sufficient to cover all the necessary claims.  Without reviewing your entire case file I couldn't tell you what the situation is in your case.  Your attorney should have been monitoring that and taking steps to modify your plan payments if necessary.  But I'm just speculating as to what may have happened. 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.

I was told that I couldn't afford to file bankruptcy. What is the least ecspensive way I can go to achieve this?

Answered by attorney Helene Thaissa W. Bergman (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at The Bergman Law Firm
Thank you Mark.  Exactly.  You need to speak with several lawyers, most have free first consultations. If you don't have the attorney fees, that does not mean you cannot afford to file.

The filing fee for a chapter 7 is $306. Attorneys fees vary. You can file bankruptcy and keep the home as long as you pay the mortgage. You can get out of the credit card debt and most all other debt.
