Can I include my title loan on my bankruptcy 7 and I still keep my car?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
First of all, you are legally obligated to list all your debts and claims (and property) on the bankruptcy papers. Depending on the State in which the vehicle is registered, and the State where you live, the title-creditor may or may not have a lien which is valid in bankruptcy. If it is, then you'll have to make some arrangement to pay the creditor in order to retain the car. Consult a good bankruptcy lawyer. It's almost always worth it.

What is the best option if I want to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy and keep my car?

Michael O'Leary
Answered by attorney Michael O'Leary
Bankruptcy lawyer at Hayward, Parker O'Leary
You should not repay the car loan prior to the bankruptcy filing. You do not list any data concerning the car, but if is "free and clear" of liens when your bankruptcy is filed, your Chapter 7 Trustee could, in some circumstances (depending on the equity), sell the car. The existence of the car loan can help "protect" the vehicle from the Trustee's reach. Your co-signer needs to have no involvement in the process. If you want to keep the car and continue paying the loan you would simply "reaffirm" the debt as part of your bankruptcy. You should discuss this matter with your bankruptcy attorney.

Can a creditor force sale of jointly owned home of unmarried couple when owed by one owner, upon death?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James T Weiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at James T. Weiner, P.C.
If the house is currently owned by both of you as "Joint Tenants With Right of Survivorship" no a creditor cannot attach his interests in the property at any time .. before or after death..If the house is owned by both of you as mere "joint tenants" or "tenants in common" there is a potential that his creditors can attach his interests after he passes. Look at your deed.. if it does not actually say "with a right of survivorship" you are most likely mere tenants in common. Further even if they can force it.. they can only get 1/2 of the equity.. the other 1/2 of the equity is yours.
