Frequently asked questions about bankruptcy in Florida
Generally, what is a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, also phrased as a liquidation, typically wipes out most of a Debtor’s general unsecured debts, including credit cards and medical bills, without the need to repay any of the debts. However, if a Debtor has any unexempt assets, those assets may be sold by the trustee to pay their Creditors. If a Debtor has limited assets, such as an older or fully encumbered car, it is possible they will be able to keep the car and still wipe out all the dischargeable debts without losing that asset. The outcome varies depending on each Debtor’s unique situation.
Generally, what is a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy?
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, also phrased as a reorganization, is a legal process by which a Debtor can catch up on past due debts, reinstate mortgage, auto, and other secured loans, and/or if they qualify, repay a portion of their unsecured debt without the worry of losing any assets. Chapter 13 is also often an alternative bankruptcy option for a Debtor who is unable to qualify for a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. In a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, Debtors are required to make monthly payments to the Chapter 13 Trustee for a period of 36-60 months. The amount of the monthly payment and number of monthly payments required depends on the Debtor’s specific circumstances.
How do I know if I qualify for a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?
There are many variables which can affect whether a Debtor qualifies for a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy or whether a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy is the best option. Often, the Means Test under the Bankruptcy Code can be the determining factor. Typically, if the gross annual income of a Debtor is under $48,000 as a single member household and under $58,960 as a two-member household then the Debtor(s) is presumed to qualify for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. The annual salary amounts are adjusted each year.
Can I file a Bankruptcy to keep my home from being sold at a foreclosure sale?
In most instances, yes, you can file for bankruptcy protection to save your property from a foreclosure sale.
How long does a Bankruptcy filing appear on my credit?
It depends on the agency searching the Debtor’s credit. Typically, it will appear for 7-10 years.
