Will we be able to keep our vehicle in a chapter 13 bankruptcy?

Bankruptcy lawyer at William Rubendall Attorney at Law
In chapter 13 you keep your assets and pay your creditors to your best ability. Most vehicles are kept, unless they are luxury items that are not needed for a successful reorganization.

What happens if my car is under my mothers name and she is filing for bankruptcy?

Michael Jay Berger
Answered by attorney Michael Jay Berger
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Michael Jay Berger
Any sale or transfer of the car shortly before the filing of a bankruptcy would look like a fraudulent transfer. If she transfers the car to you, the chapter 7 trustee could sue you to set aside the transfer and get the car back. At the same time, the transfer of title to you would cause your mother to lose her exemption for the car. It would be better to list the car as an asset and exempt it if possible, or list the car in the debtor's statement of affairs as property held for another (you).

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
If the bankruptcy case is still open, then yes they must obtain "relief from the automatic stay" in order to proceed with ANY collections action.
