How would I know if I needed to file for bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Margaret L. Evans (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Margaret L. Evans, PC
Question: How would I know if I needed to file for bankruptcy? Question Detail: I have around $85,000 debt for medical bills and credit cards. I get a structure settlement. I don't want to lose the home. Everything is in my daughter's name. I couldn't get a loan. *- depends on the details of your structured settlement and what the terms of the settlement agreement are; and based on your comment that you have about $85K in dischargeable debt I would CERTAINLY think that you are an excellent candidate for BKY - HOWEVER, I'd want to know more about that structured settlement first.

Do I legally still have a contract with them and why don't they report my payments on my credit report?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
Your misunderstanding of this situation is really overwhelming. If you filed bankruptcy, federal law required you to list your mortgage debt as it requires you to list all of your debts in bankruptcy. Mortgage lenders will not report your payments to the credit bureaus after filing, but you can always obtain a print out of your payments and account history from the lender if you decide to refinance. If your mortgage is paid every month, you will continue to own the home. If you die, your heirs can inherit the property subject to the balance on the mortgage. If you fail to make the mortgage payments in the future, the mortgage company can foreclose but they cannot sue you to collect any difference should the property sell for less than the amount you owe.
