What can I do about old credit card debt if I filed for a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Max L Rosenberg
Answered by attorney Max L Rosenberg
Bankruptcy lawyer at Rosenberg Hite, LLC
It is unclear what happened to you in your situation. You ramble all over the place in your question and muddy the waters to the point where I cannot give a clear cohesive answer. If you filed for bankruptcy during a time when it would have covered this debt then the debt would be effectively discharged whether or not you listed it on the bankruptcy petition unless you have an asset bankruptcy case. Most people have no asset cases which means that a trustee will not take any assets to disburse among the creditors. If this was the case in your case, you are making mistakes in entering into any payment plan with these people. All you need do is advise them of the date and filing number of your bankruptcy and explained that the debt was discharged. If however the debt was attached and secured by property then you have a different problem and they can repossess cars or whatever property the debts are attached to. You need to see a lawyer.

Can someone elaborate on chapter 13 dismissal and how it works?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Margaret L. Evans, PC
Question: Can someone elaborate on chapter 13 dismissal and how it works? Question Detail: I filed for a chapter 7 back in September and am in the midst of converting to a Chapter 13. I've since decided I want to back out of the bankruptcy process as it has become very stressful and trying on me. From my understanding, once it converts to a Chapter 13, I have right to dismissal. *- NO, that is NOT true; if it originally started as a Chapter 7 then you are NOT allowed to voluntarily dismiss it*

If your previous case was filed before May, 2004, you need to immediately consult a bankruptcy attorney and consider filing another Chapter 7.
