Feds: Bankruptcy scam freed impounded vehicles

I saw the US Trustee's office discussing this matter on a case before Judge Cassling last week. The case was dismissed, namely because the debtor didn't file most of the required documents. It's a shame that these individuals were taking advantage of debtors, when a qualified attorney could get them much better results....get their cars back, and get rid of the fines, often for as little as pennies on the dollar with a Chapter 13 bankrutpcy!!  Contact me for a free consultation on how...

R is for repossession

R is for Repossession
I would estimate that over half, if not 75% of my clients have had a repossession in the past, many with 2 or even 3 of them.   Chapter 7 is a great tool to wipe those debts out and get a fresh start.   But, if it just happened, and you want your car back??  I can get it back for you!!  Generally in Illinois you get 21 days from the date of the repossession to file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy.  This will allow you to get the vehicle back!...

N is for a no asset report in bankruptcy

This is the holy grail in bankruptcy, what every chapter seven debtor wants.

A no asset report by the standing bankruptcy trustee means there are no assets to administer in the bankruptcy case for the benefit of creditors. It's either because your exemptions are great enough to protect all of your belongings, or that there is no significant value that the trustee would receive if they tried to liquidate the unexempt asset. (The trustee does not want to sell your used VHS cassette tapes at...

M is for Marriage in bankruptcy

If you are married, you are not required to file a joint bankruptcy.   In many cases you should though.a.  If you live in a community property state it is usually wise to file a joint case.  Debts incurred by either spouse during a marriage are each spouses responsibility in most instances.   Therefore, if only one spouse files on marital debt, the other spouse gets socked with the responsibility for repayment, which defeats the purpose of filing a bankruptcy case.b. Many...
