Do we have to talk with our lender during the foreclosure process and why?

Answered by attorney Ronald K. Nims (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Ronald K. Nims
You've already had a foreclosure suit filed against you so your credit is shot. Depending on your state and county, an unopposed mortgage action can take anywhere from 2 months to 6 months. By filing a answer in the mortgage action that goes up by several months. There is no income from "forgiveness of indebtedness" due to a foreclosure, if the house sells for less than you owe, the lender has a judgment for the deficiency, so they can garnish your wages, seize your bank account, etc. In order to get the negative equity eliminated you need to have the bank accept a short sale or a deed in lieu. Bankruptcy will eliminate the deficiency and delay the foreclosure.

Can the bank take my car if I file for bankruptcy?

No. If you own a car free and clear then you would likely be able to exempt the car and keep it in a Chapter 7 proceeding. You are provided exemptions in a bankruptcy that allow you to keep so much "stuff."

What can I do if my ex husband is filing bankruptcy before my name is removed from the mortgage?

Answered by attorney Helene Ellenbogen (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Helene Ellenbogen P.S.
The mortgage is likely not included in the bankruptcy since it is a secured debt. What did your decree say about removing you from the mortgage? Was he required to refinance by a certain date? If all the decree ordered was that he pay the mortgage, then you are stuck with this. You may be able to go back to court to have the house transferred to you, pay any arrearages on the mortgage and save it from the bankruptcy assuming it's included.
