Can I do bankruptcy and how do I go about doing so?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
Although you mostly likely can file bankruptcy, you may not need to do this until just before you return to work. Unless you are severely disabled, it is unlikely that you will be able to eliminate your student loan debt. Your first step should be to check out the reviews of the bankruptcy attorneys in your community to see which one might meet your needs.

What is the average cost to file personal bankruptcy, Chapter 13?

Charles J Schneider
Answered by attorney Charles J Schneider (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Charles J. Schneider, P.C.
There is no average cost. There are only average attorneys, beginner attorneys, better attorneys and the best attorneys. The cost may depend on the issues and which side of the state you reside. It may involve issues such as the amount of your debt. Whether you have unexempt property, a business, fraudulent conveyance issues, voidable preference issues, etc. Whether you intend to strip away a home equity mortgage. Generally the majority of fees in a chapter 13 are paid thru the plan.

Can a timeshare company foreclose something I thought I didn't own anymore?

Keith Austin Wellman
Answered by attorney Keith Austin Wellman (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Wellman Law LLC
In your Bankruptcy schedules you would have been required to state whether your intentions were to surrender the timeshares or reaffirm the debts. There is nothing in the required filings that operates as a transfer of ownership. The actual transfer of ownership happens separately. You would have received a discharge of the debt, but that does not transfer ownership. They are now asking you to go forward with the process of surrendering the properties. Is there any concern about signing these over now? Perhaps there is equity in there that you could realize by selling them on the open market, which would require paying off the timeshares, but I know that can be very difficult.
