Richard asks…Can my divorce lawyer sue me even after I have filed chapter 7 bankruptcy for attorneys fees still owed?LegalBeagle answers:Did you specifically list your divorce attorney as a creditor? Was he notified that you were attempting to declare bankruptcy on this debt? Did he appear at your hearing to contest this?
Is your bankruptcy final and was the debt wiped out?
If the answer is yes, then the answer to your question is no, not successfully. I would send him a letter explaining that the debt was discharged during your bankruptcy.
If your bankruptcy is pending, I would speak with your bankruptcy attorney. If you do not have one, I would send your divorce attorney a letter that states you are in the process of declaring bankruptcy and you are asking the court to discharge this debt to him.Donna asks…Question to bankruptcy attorneys and or trustees?SORRY TO REPOST MY QUESTION IS NOT RESOLVED.
I’m thinking about filing Chapter 7 but do not know if im eligible. Here’s my situation, I make 19k a year which is below the median; I have no property/assets or savings. I owe 23k on the car and 18k on 3 credit cards. If i sell the car I still owe 8k. I tried to negotiate with my car’s creditor and that’s the best rate they can do. The reason why I want to liquidate my debt is because I want to go back to school full-time. Save money and rebuild credit while in school. If i continue paying my debt (5 more years) I will not have savings and an education. I don’t mean to be a deadbeat on my debts but this is the best solution i can do in order to straighten my life, financially and responsibly. I don’t want to do Chapter 13 for my credit card debts– this will waste my time, money and get a ruined credit report. Question is if im eligible to file CH.7
I’ll face the consequences: lawyer fees,bad record for 10 years, higher rates.you name itLegalBeagle answers:You’re best bet is to go in and talk to a bankruptcy lawyer. A lot of them should have free consultations and will be able to tell you then if you’re eligible or not. And don’t feel like a deadbeat, sh*t happens to all of us at one time or another
