Can I get my money back for a promissory note if the debtor filed for bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Phong Thanh Tran (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Pho Ethan Tran, PLLC
Unfortunately, unless the debt is secured or the debtor has assets that can be sold and distributed, the chances of you recovering any money back from the loan is very slim.

Is filing for bankruptcy the only option I have to get out of the gas, electric and cable bill that my mother put under my name?

Answered by attorney Kathryn Ursula Tokarska (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Kathryn Tokarska
I can't see anything else but either: arrange payment plan, ignore and see what happens - maybe they won't sue to collect, sue Mom to recover, or file bankruptcy if the relief is available to you. I can't say whether you can or should file for bankruptcy without understanding more details about your financial situation.

How long does the lender have to pursue a deficiency judgement on a commercial loan foreclosure?

Answered by attorney Jeffrey M. Cook (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at J.M. Cook, P.A.
There is a one year statute of limitations on a deficiency from the date of the delivery of the deed in the foreclosure sale. However, if the note was signed under seal, that term may be extended. The best advice is to have an atty review your specific situation and docs.
