Do I need to file bankruptcy if collectors are calling me and I cannot pay what I owe?

Stuart M. Nachbar
Answered by attorney Stuart M. Nachbar
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Stuart M. Nachbar, P.C.
As a bankruptcy specialist, I would suggest that you contact an attorney who knows about bankruptcy and explore your options with him/her. Depending on the amount you owe, the items of real property and personal property you own, and your income, you may find bankruptcy to be a valid option for you.

How do I proceed to receive full payment as my shipment arrived post-bankruptcy filing?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
First of all, you would benefit from retaining a skilled bankruptcy lawyer. You would likely have had strong reclamation rights if you had demanded reclamation during the first 10 days after your customer filed its petition. But if you did make your demand in that period then your lawyer might still be able to move the Court for reclamation. Failing that you probably would have an administrative claim to be paid in full. Again... a good lawyer is what you need.

If we file for bankruptcy and leave the country, do I have to repay the loan? How does the repayment work?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)

If you file bankruptcy, you would need to do so with enough time to attend a mandatory meeting with your trustee to be assigned by the court. So you would want to file your case at least 6 weeks before your flight leaves. Or you can leave, and the creditors will be unlikely to have any ability to collect from you once you are gone. The debt won't be cancelled for many years, but it will not affect your ability to enter the US, unless the debt is to a public hospital. In any event, this debt won't affect your children's ability to travel to the US.
