The Bare Bones Filing In Bankruptcy

Call: 888-297-6203 There is a sale date for your Jacksonville home.

Married Couples Get Unique Benefits In Bankruptcy Cases And Wage Garnishment

Call: 888-297-6203 Married debtors might get a unique opportunity over unmarried debtors in defending wage garnishments.

Bankruptcy Filings Before The Holidays Are Beneficial

Call: 888-297-6203 Bankruptcy filings in Jacksonville are at their lowest from November to February as no one wants to go bankrupt during holidays.

The goods and services which are reasonable and necessary for the support and maintenance of the debtor and his or her dependents are exempted. Presents, even the traditional ones, will be considered a luxury except if they are especially modest. Such pre-filing [...]

Bankruptcy Attorney Suspended For Giving Bad Advice To The Client

Call: 888-297-6203 George Sadorus’ decision to hire a bankruptcy attorney over the internet proved to be harmful to him. He really should have heard the warning bells when his attorney had asked him to be dishonest with the Trustee about his inability to attend the 341 Meeting of Creditors. A paralegal had advised Sadorus that $8,000 which was there in his bank account would be exempt in the bankruptcy. Later, the paralegal did not inform the attorney about the account, and thus the attorney filed Sadorus’ case without disclosing $8,000 in his account. As soon as the attorney [...]

Stripping Second Mortgages In A Chapter 7 Case

Call: 888-297-6203 This blog post is about getting an effect in a Chapter 7 case which is similar to lien stripping in a Chapter 13 case.

This, together with the Florida Constitution, allows the keeping of financed homes through bankruptcy. But, most of the people, these days, are struggling with the problem that their house is underwater and the equity does not secure their second mortgage anymore. For example: Home Value    [...]
