Is there any way I can sue or get out of paying this unexpected medical bill?

Answered by attorney John F Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
I would need the details, generally if you received the services your will receive and be liable for the bill. If they were priced at $1000, then that is most probably the doctors fee, not for the hospital. Good luck, you should see an attorney to get a firm opinion.

What would be the procedure if two people are co owners of a credit card with a balance of $20,000 and one wants to file bankruptcy?

Marjorie A. Guymon
Answered by attorney Marjorie A. Guymon
Bankruptcy lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
You are both jointly liable for the entire balance owing. As such, if one files bankruptcy the other is liable for the entire amount of the debt.

If I stop paying in March 2014 and pocket money for the move, roughly how many months before lenders can sue and throw me out?

Answered by attorney Thomas Anthony Vogele (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Thomas Vogele & Associates, APC
Your question prompts a couple of responses. First, I presume, although you do not explicitly say so, that you already filed a Chapter 7 and received a discharge. As a practical matter, it may take many months for you to actually be subject to a foreclosure sale and eviction. You mention Massachusetts, but in California it is not uncommon for lenders to take 1-2 years to actually get someone out of the house, during which time you could save the monthly payments for a new start. From a moral standpoint, do you really want to engage in what is arguably fraud and theft? One reason for our nation's economic collapse in 2007/8 was the refusal of all facets of the mortgage industry (lenders, brokers, borrowers) to act honestly and ethically. How does staying in the house without paying for it comport with your own personal ethos? If it were me, I would contact the lender and propose a deed in lieu of foreclosure with the lender paying you a move-out fee (cash for keys) rather than the course you are suggesting. Whatever you decide, I highly recommend you speak with an attorney conversant in local real property laws before you take one course of action over another.
