My wife co-signed for her mother on a bank credit card. Now married, my mother is filing bankruptcy. Will my wife be paying?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)

The co-signer is just as responsible as the signer. They probably will come after your wife. What you can do about it is ask for verification of the debt. Perhaps if they sue you could do what is known as a notice of production, asking for all of the individual receipts for credit card purchases. Most companies use to have central clearing houses where the receipts go. Who knows where they go now in this digital age. They may have to produce these things for trial. You will need to hire an attorney in order to do this right. Good luck.

How do I get by attorney to add asset to schedules in chapter 13 bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
You have provided a lot of detail, but your answer ought to be set out in your fee agreement. I charge an additional amount of money to file an amendment in any bankruptcy case, and I suspect most attorneys do as well. If the split to the property occurred after the bankruptcy was filed, I don?t think you have a problem. But if the split occurred before the bankruptcy was filed, you may setting yourself up for a lot more trouble than you can imagine because the unencumbered 5 acres become potential ?liquidation value? that may significantly increase the amount you need to pay into your plan. Now might be a good time to obtain a second opinion with the best Chapter 13 attorney in your community.

If I should file a claim, what value should I use, current value, if any, or what I paid for the stock?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)

Depending on developments in the case, you will probably receive nothing, since as a stockholder you are an owner, rather than a creditor. (Again, unless there is something unusual about your particular stock.) You would likely be filing a 'Proof of Interest' rather than a Proof of Claim, if you chose to do so. Good Luck.
