I filed for bankruptcy in 2005, can I file again now?

Answered by attorney Asaph Orion Abrams (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Asaph Abrams
Different variables may effect a different answer (see this San Diego bankruptcy attorney's website for detail), but your situation MAY correspond to this common fact pattern: If you filed a chapter 7 bankruptcy case in 2005 AND received a discharge (successful forgiveness of debt), then you can file another chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2013 (in order to receive a discharge), after it's been 8+ years after the filing date of the first chapter 7 bankruptcy. This answer (by San Diego bankruptcy attorney, Asaph Abrams) doesn't address all facts & implications of the question; it's general info, not legal advice to be relied upon. It creates no attorney-client relationship; it may be pertinent to CA and/or its Southern District Bankruptcy Court only, and it's independent of other answers. It may be time sensitive, as in past the "Use by" date: laws and case law change. Hire legal counsel before acting or refraining from bankruptcy/legal action.

In order to keep costs down, can a paralegal be used in a simple bankruptcy case? If so, how does one go about retaining a paraglegal in the state of Texas?

There are services which can help you to prepare a bankruptcy petition.  However, these providers cannot give you legal advice, and cannot help you during the bankruptcy proceedings.  Additionally, if you file for Chapter 13, very few people can successfully navigate a Chapter 13 case without the help of a skilled bankruptcy attorney.  It would be in your best interest to at lease consult a local bankruptcy attorney.  Most bankruptcy attorneys offer free initial consultations. This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature. No attorney-client relationship exists or is formed by this information. Furthermore, this does not represent the views or opinions of LexisNexis or its affiliated companies.

When one files Bankruptcy, does that relieve them of paying a Court Ordered payment through n Divorce?

Answered by attorney Marjorie A. Guymon
Bankruptcy lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
It depends what type of bankruptcy you file and why type court ordered payment it is. If it is a support payment, such as child support, spousal support or alimony, no bankruptcy can discharge this obligation. However, if it was a property settlement or debt division order then those can be discharged in a chapter 13 bankruptcy after plan payments have been concluded.
