Should I consider bankrupcy to keep my primary home?

Answered by attorney Phong Thanh Tran (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Pho Ethan Tran, PLLC
In Texas, your home is exempt from the bankruptcy estate as long as you continue to make payments on any outstanding mortgages.

Is it possible to sell my house before filling bankruptcy? Or will this create a bad situation with the future trustee?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Gregory J Wald (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Gregory J. Wald
Your plan is flawed. If you sell your home and use the money to pay relatives, the payments will be considered a "preference". The trustee of your bankruptcy case may demand that your relatives turn the funds over to the court so that they can be distributed evenly among all of your creditors. You might be better off to exempt the home in your bankruptcy if you are able and then sell the home after the bankruptcy is completed. You could then use the funds to pay whatever creditor you choose.

Do I need to attend the meeting of creditors?

Christopher J. Kane
Answered by attorney Christopher J. Kane
Bankruptcy lawyer at Christopher J. Kane, P.C.
Yes, it is mandatory that you attend that meeting. If you don't show up, your bankruptcy will be dismissed and you will have to start over again. If you can't make it because of an emergency or medical reason, you can file a motion to reset the hearing. In very rare circumstances the Trustee will allow you to reset the hearing for a later date, but you must communicate with them right away.
